Thinking Of You Always

 Hi blog friends! Black, white and gold are the colours for today's card in case your monitor makes it look different!  I embossed the gold background using the Flora embossibility folder.  I extended it to do the entire background, even though it doesn't line up exactly.  I cut two of the large Vintage Motifs out of white card.  I cut them both in half, slightly offset.   I mounted the two larger ones on the top of the card and rthe two smaller halves on the bottom.  I stamped my sentiment on a strip of gold card and matted it diagonally across the card, covering the edges of the motifs.  I added two strips of black card with mounting foam to frame the diagonal strip.  I matted the entire background with a piece of white card for balance.  A pierced mat of black card was added to the back.  I tied a double bow using the gold silky crush ribbon.  I made a six petal flower out of black cardstock.  When the glue was dry, I dipped it in melted ultra thick embossing powder to create a porcelain flower for the centre of my bow.  I love the way these flowers look!  I added two black pearl stick pins to the bow and a swirl of black rhinestones to the top of the card to finish it off.  I hope you like it!  All for now, Sue x
