Best Wishes

Hi there my crafty friends!  Today's card is all about the dies!  I started by cutting the Ava die twice in white.  I crisscrossed them and added a Caroline die in aqua in the middle of them.  I cut just the inner die again in white and added an aqua backing to it and attached it horizontally.  I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the inner die and added it with foam.  I used the Stitched Pegboard Frames and made a multi layered frame out of a white base and a thinner aqua layer.  I added the frame with foam over a piece of white card and added my die cuts to the centre.  Small white flowers from the Chloe die were added around the sentiment.  White and aqua mats and layers were used to complete the card.  The finished dimensions are 8" x  8" in size.  All for now Sue x

Get Well

Good Sunday morning all!  Today's cards is featuring one of the matching Stamps To Die For that coordinates with the Heather die.  I started by embossing the background with the Swirly Heart embossing folder.  Next I cut the Poppy die in black and backed in a deep dusty rose (from my stash).  I seated that horizon tally across the background.  Next I stamped and cut out the Heathers Wild Flowers stamp and used Distress inks to colour it.  I decided to leave the background and just colour the flowers and leaves and the tiny edge all the way around.  I added it to the centre of the card with foam and used the Get Well sentiment in the middle.  I used the Passion Flowers as accents in the opposite corners and added a bow and leaves too.  One, rose and black mats and layers were used to complete the card.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now.

Christmas Double Day

Hello crafters!  It's or second Christmas double day this year and I have two very different cards to share with you.  First up is one of my favourites.  I started by cutting the Believe In The Magic Frame out of coconut white card and nipping it apart.  On another piece of card, I covered a piece of black card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled it back then sprinkled it with Marine Blue, Midnight Rainbow and Teal Haze Holographic Glitter to get an amazing night sky look.   I added a sparkly moon with the Santa's sleigh from the frame to it.  I cut an extra bit of the frame to get a few more trees and I used the cottages and trees across the bottom of the card.  I attached it to another piece of card and nipped apart the Season's Greetings sentiment to attached it in an offset manner.  I used Vellum poinsettias to add a floral element to the card.  Black and white mats completed the card.  The finished dimensions are 8" x  8 3/4" in size.  Scroll down for card number two.

Card number two is an angelic one.  I started by cutting the Christmas Angel 2018 out of both silver mirror card and black, using the black as a shadow.  Next I added a matte silver backing to the angel.  I cut the Snowball frame out of antique silver, then seated it over a Netted Star Background cut in white.  I cut a larger piece of white as the background and added it with mounting foam in the lower corner.  A white Angelina die was cut and added just under the top corner.  The angel was centred within the frame and pearls were added to the frame surround.  The sentiment from the Snowball frame was added above and vellum poinsettias added a floral element to the lower left corner.  Silver, black and white mats completed this card.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x 8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x
