Just For You
Hello crafters! I selected a piece of Arctic Blue card to use as the background. I embossed it with an embossing folder (I apologise but I can't find the name of it.) Next I cut the Flower Pot die out of Slate Grey card. I cut the top of the pot a second time, then added it with mounting foam on to the pot. I used Black Soot distress ink to highlight the edges. I cut the Layered daffodils out of two shades of yellow and I cut the leaves out of two shades of green card. I assembled the flowers and arranged them in the pot and glued them into place. I cut the Just For You sentiment out of yellow card and glued it on to the flowerpot. I added two butterflies in white from the Dainty Butterfly set and glittered them then seated one on the lip of the pot and the other on a flower. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue and all that enter the inspirational world that takes our breath sometimes. What more do we need when you give us a gorgeous pot of daffodils ? This collection of various flowers could make a beautiful wall display in various size box frames. I love how you share your love of craft with us, this blog starts my day in the nicest of ways, thank you xxx

Morning Sue, todays card is gorgeous, and the daffodils made me smile, because we still have a few late flowering ones in our garden. Take care everyone. Bx
Hi Sue. Daffodils are so symbolic of springtime, unfortunately most of them have gone from our gardens now, but this card is a great way to extend the season,
Hi Sue, a beautiful card and I love it. I am lucky to have lots of late flowering daffodils (narcissus) still flowering, they are mainly white, some with orange trumpets and they brighten up some dull corners of the garden.
Hi Sue Sorry I didn’t get to comment yesterday but had a long travelling to the island of Gozo, Malta. It’s not often I can say this but I have everything needed to recreate this beautiful card
Morning Sue.
