For My Friend

Good Sunday morning all!  I used the Tidal Sands embossing folder to add texture to a piece of white card.  I added a wide strip of blue card to the bottom of the embossed piece and added a thin black strip across the card between the two layers.  I cut the Stained Glass Coneflower die starting with the middle die.  I cut it in white and added a blue backing to it.  I cut the Coneflower die in white and backed it with vellum.  I used markers and coloured the vellum from the back.  I layered up the two die cuts and attached them to the top of the card.  I cut the For My Friend sentiment in black and glued it to the bottom of the card.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  7 3/4"  in size.  All for now,  Sue x
