Hello there my crafty friends! I selected a piece of pixied card from my background stash. The piece was made using Lava Red and Candy Pink Pixie Powders. I cut the Loving Heart Frame about five times out of white card. I cut all of them in half from corner to corner. I attached them to the background starting with the pieces almost touching in the middle, then added the rest of them inside of the others to fill up the background. I trimmed them even with the edges. I cut two of the Looped Ovals in white and matted them. I added that to the middle of the card with mounting foam. I cut the You're Always In My Heart sentiment cut in black. I made two dimensional flowers using the extra dies from the Magnolia Corner. I glittered them and added them to the right corner of the sentiment and added white leaves as accents. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hello bloggers! I thought I would share one more card from the latest release. I started with a piece of white card and embossed it with the Falling Snow embossing folder. I cut a wide strip of white card and used an embossing board to add a lined bottom to the card. I added a strip of red card between the two pieces. I cut the Poinsettia Banner out of green card. I added the banner in white and I had already stamped the sentiment before cutting it. I added two gold scrolls above and below it then added two red poinsettias with gold centres. I used mounting foam to add it to the top of the card. I cut one more of the poinsettias in red and cut the Bauble Branch die cut in gold and added both of them to the bottom of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
