Good Luck
Hello crafters! I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet and embossed it with the Floral Brocade embossing folder. I
peeled off the backing paper and coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz. I cut the Wrapped Pearl Frame in white and added it to the backing die which I cut in white. I used the Layered Zinnias and cut them in two shades of purple and peach and assembled them. I added clear micro beads to the flower centres. I cut the stems in two shades of green and glued the flowers to them. I arranged the flowers inside the pearl frame and glued them to the frame. I cut the Good Luck sentiment from a Wordie sheet and added it with mounting foam. I added pearls to the frame as accents. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 9 1/4" in size.
I thought I would give you a nit of an advance notice that tomorrow is the March Die Release Blog Launch. We will be kicking it off right here at 6am. Hope to see you then!! All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue and hi to all that pop in. Hope our mum's had a lovely day yesterday. I think your inspiration for today is just beautiful, in fact I'd have put a different sentiment on the front because with the pearl wrapped frame adorned with pearls it's just so grand, and imagine the floral arrangement in sugared white flowers, you've got the most amazing wedding card.... my mind is unusually active for this time of day lol. I'm really looking forward to the launch, having them monthly is really something to look forward to although I still forget we have more posts in one day !! So I'll send everyone my love, and hugs to our blog family that maybe feeling down or unwell, in pain, or having a craft block xxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, how beautiful this sample is, mind you all your samples are amazing , I have the dies for this one so I can have a go at making it, thank you so much for sharing.
Looking forward to the blog launch tomorrow, I wonder what it will be.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Morning Sue, a lovely floral card today, really pretty. Looking forward to the new release, can't wait to see what you have for us this month. Take care and stay warm everyone. Bx
Good Morning Sue. What a lovely card today Sue. The colours are beautiful ... And I love the pearl border. And I agree with Stephanie on this one. Being that the sentiment is a good one ... I think the card is more worthy of a more personal greeting.. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well 🙏.

Morning Sue. What a really cheerful card today and I could really do with cheering up as I have had covid for the last 10 days. I hope when I test again today the result will be negative and that I will begin to feel better. Looking forward to the launch tomorrow.
A very pretty card today, this must really sparkle with the glitterbitz but unfortunately doesn’t show on my iPad. Thank you Sue. Look forward to the die release tomorrow.
Hi Sue Beautiful card I love the sparkly background and the colourful zinnias I'm looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us in your new launch
Hi Sue, I loved this beautiful card when you launched the layered florals in January. I am glad to see the instructions because I would never have guessed then that you had glittered the background. The close-ups show how gorgeous it is. Look forward to seeing what you have for us this time.
