I Smile When I Think Of You

 Hello bloggers! I selected a piece of Ruby Red card for the background.  I used the Alice die and cut it into the card.  I backed it with a piece of white card.   Using the Lace Coronet Border, I cut it four times in white and glued them in pairs to the edges of the card.  I cut the Gloria die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I coloured the white embossed copy with alcohol ink markers, then covered the piece with a sticky adhesive sheet and added the black die cut on top.  I trimmed away the excess adhesive sheet.  I sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on top.  I added the die cut to the centre of the card with mounting foam.  I cut the I Smile When I Think Of You sentiment in black and added it to a  shadow backing die.  I added the sentiment across the middle of the die.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  9 1/2" in size. 


 All for now, Sue x
