For A Special Friend
Hello crafters! I started today's card by embossing a piece of white card with the Tidal Sands embossing folder. I cut it on a diagonal, then added mounting foam to the back of both pieces. I attached them to another piece of white card leaving a gap of about an inch and a hlaf between the pieces. I cut the Layered Asters in red, purple and lilac card. I arranged the three colours of flowers and glued them into the diagonal crevice between the two embossed pieces. I cut a couple more red Asters and a green stem and added the flower at the bottom of the card. I cut the For A Special Friend in black and added it to a white shadow backing piece, then attached it with mounting foam to the top of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue, what an amazing and lovely card. Great layout, perfect for the flowers. Bx
Hi Sue. What a very good idea to "plant" the asters between the raised sections of the embossed card. I might have to use this one myself.

Hello
A beautiful card. I love how the embossing folder makes the flowers look like they are swaying with it. A very different way of displaying those gorgeous flowers.
