Thinking Of You
Hello bloggers! I selected a piece of Arctic Blue card and embossed it with the Floral Brocade embossing folder. I cut two of the Looped Ovals in white and matted them. I inked the Magnolia Stampcuts with a water based black ink pas and ran it through the die cutting machine. I coloured it with alcohol ink markers. I added it to the Looped Ovals with mounting foam. I cut the Thinking Of You sentiment in both Arctic Blue and black. I shadowed the sentiment with the black one and glued it to the top of the Looped Ovals. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x
Ohhh Sue what an absolute beauty. You give us the most amazing ideas and share such stunning inspiration. This is you, this is what we have loved you for for many years, this is amazing. Love to all, hope everyone is doing OK xxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another gorgeous sample today, am loving the soft blue background with the depth of the embossing, and the layers of the sentiments too, very pretty and finally with the beautiful magnolia as centre stage, brilliant, you certainly know your designs, thank you Sue xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Good Morning Sue. Love... Love... Love it. I want to make this one. I don't have the stamp cut dies ( yet ) but I am sure I have something in my stash of dies and stamps that would work. I do have this gorgeous embossing folder and I use it often. I love that it's an A4 size ... so any pieces left will get used on other cards. Great work. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds. x x

Hi Sue. Well, I don't know where to start with my comment today. I love this card, from the arctic blue card you have used for the background to the simple-looking looped oval dies you have used for the main element which have such an impact. Thanks for sharing,
