Sincere Thanks
Hello bloggers! I reached into my pixied background stash for this one! I cannot take the credit for it, however, my Grandkids made this one on their last visit. I thought it was such a beautiful soft look that I just had to use it! They used a combination of Candy Pink, Aqua Lagoon and Rich Gold Pixie Powders. Using the Scalloped End Rectangles, I cut a wide white frame and added mounting foam to the back of it. I attached it to the centre of the card. I used the Layered Magnolias and cut them in white. I used a combination of Distress Inks on them including Picked Raspberry, Fossilized Amber and Antique Linen. I assembled the inked flowers and added them to a brown stem with green leaves and yellow buds attached. I used the flowers to sort of curl around the opposite corners of the frame. I cut the Sincere Thanks sentiment in black and glued it inside the frame. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
