Fabulous Friend

Hi crafters!  I used the Art Deco Fan Border and cut it into black gloss card four times, creating a background with it.  I backed it with Amethyst card.  Next I cut the centre die from the Ornate Tile die set in white.  I attached it to the centre of the background in a diamond orientation.  I cut the Grand Label die in Amethyst card and backed it with amethyst card.  I seated it on top of the white die cut.  I cut the Art Deco Fabulous Friend sentiment out of black gloss card and glued it across the label die.  I added a small white flower in the corner as an accent.  The card was completed with white, amethyst card and black card mats and layers.    The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8 3/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue and all that visit this morning. Another beautiful Art Deco card. And what a lovely colour it is too. Purple shades don't really do much for me ... But today must be special because I really do like this colour. And the design, well what can I say. It's just exquisite. Thankyou Sue.
Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them.
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds. Please stay safe and well 🙏
