Hugs & Kisses
Good Sunday morning all! I have a card that uses some older dies today. I started with a piece of black card and I used Tantalising Teal and Apple Fizz Lustre Polishes on the background. I randomly applied them together then set them aside to dry thoroughly. Next I used the Pyxis Gemini die and cut it into the bottom of the card three times. I used the Mallory die and cut it into the card on the top. I cut the outer die in the set to create a thin white frame that I glued around the Mallory die. I backed the entire background with a piece of white card. I cut the Hugs & Kisses sentiment out of a leftover piece of the lustre polished background and glued it to the top of the Mallory die. I added three small glittered flowers around the sentiment. The card was completed with white mats and layer. The finished dimensions are 8 1/4" x 8 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hiya Sue. It's a blast definitely from the past today every die except the expression are from pre multiple die releases, once a year treats, the Wednesday giveaway etc, and they must be popular because you can still buy them, I love the whole design but there's a 'but' I don't like green, the only green I'm in favour of is certain green veg lol as a child I'd never eat green sweeties, so sharing was my way out lol.
Sending love to a today xxx
Morning Sue.
WOW WOW WOW beautiful.
Thank you.
Take care and stay safe Kitty.
Morning Sue,
I can see this design being made in lots of different colours. I don't have this particular Gemini die but I have others which will do the job in a similar way.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Sue
This is a lovely card and using older dies. The green is a little too green for me. Take care everyone x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, wow this is colourful but what a fantastic colour it is, why can I never get that sort of colouring when I do it. Gorgeous and I think I have those dies xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue .
Lovely card. The dies still look amazing, but I am not a lover of the colour green. It would look just as beautiful in any colour though.

Good morning Sue,
A fabulous card & lovely to see the older dies being used. I have these dies & will be using them this afternoon as you have reminded me to use my older dies. Yvonne xx
Hi Sue. Nice design for this card, however, although I do like green, there is a bit too much of it for me. Perhaps the card could do with a bit of variation in colours - sorry!

Hello Sue, love the design of this card and the use of some older dies

Morning Sue, love it when you use the older dies as I can’t afford many of the new dies with the cost of living crisis!! Beautiful card, love the colour of the background. Love Jean xxx
Love how the card is made, not crazy for the green
Hi Sue, I have left a very late comment on yesterday's card and was determined not to miss today. I really like this card and cutting the Gemini die three times gives the impression of layers without extra weight or depth, a good idea that I must remember. I do love green and the lustre polishes have a gorgeous shine to them.

How lovely to see some of the older dies, not
too sure about the green though.

Hi Sue
It’s always good to revisit some of your older dies as we tend to forget about them when we buy something new,.Lovely card
Love and hugs to everyone

Morning Sue, a very classy card, love the background colours. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
This card would be ideal for St.Patrick’s day! A good use of the older dies. Thank you Sue
P.s. like Steph I would never eat green sweets!
I am undecided about this one. I love the design and although green is my favourite colour, and this green is gorgeous, maybe it’s just a bit too much. Lovely to see some of your older dies though. X
Hi Sue
Great card and lovely to see some of your older dies having centre stage again. Great dramatic colour too.
Love Helen xxx
Lovely card Sue, it's nice to dust off the older dies xx Hazel
Lovely card, Sue. This green (I wouldn't have guessed that the background was originally a piece of black card) and white combination is so pretty. Thanks for sharing.
Hugs from Toronto to you all.
Stay safe and healthy.

Very pretty background Sue!!
Loving the post and another super background - love that green...
Hi Sue Lovely card it is really good to see some of your older dies I like the green I expect yhd lustre polishes have a lovely sheen to them in real life
Hi Sue, I’m so sorry I just don’t remember these dies, except the sentiment die, but a lovely card all the same and in MY favourite colour too

Beautiful card. . . makes me think of St. Patrick's Day! Hugs.
Makes me think of leprechauns and four-leaf clovers - would be a perfect St Patrick's Day card! Judy from Prosser
