Hi bloggers! An all milk coloured card today. This card showcases the extra corner die from the Filigree Delight set. I always try to find some uses aside from the obvious for these types of dies. Basically, when is a corner die not a corner die? When you can use it to create a pretty focal element! I started by creating the embossed background, but wanted to add a bit extra to it so I used the Whimsical Flora embossibility folder and inked it with Antique Linen Distress ink. I placed my milk coloured card inside the folder and ran it through the GC to produce a faux letterpress effect. This allowed the ink to transfer to the floor of the design. It is very subtle, but it gives a bit of an antiqued look to it. Next I started in on my focal element by cutting eight of the corners. I arranged them with four on the bottom layer, then offset the following four on the upper layer. I also added some foam mounting pieces so the pointed end was slightly raised upwards. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the tag. I inked it with Antique Linen while in the die, then tucked the very tips into a slot on the corner die piece, giving it a slightly rounded look. I mounted my background on an extra piece of milk card that I used Cosmic Shimmer pearl PVA glue to make dots around the edges. I finished the card with a double mat of milk card with a pierced inner mat. Good for any occasion or in any colour choice, but at least you have some options for your corner die! Finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

What an elegant and pure gift today!! I love the all white and the format is so regal - the top layer of the corner die looks so much like a crown - I defy anyone not to like or want to receive this gift.
I shall be trying it out in a different colour just to see how it compares with the white.
Hope you are having a wonderful time with 'Mom' and friends.
It's my craft afternoon with my crafty 'knit and knatterers' so will be comparing notes.

Hello Sue, WOW this is a beautiful card, the focal element is gorgeous and the faux letterpress and embossing scrummy. Will be looking at my corner dies differently from now on. Thank you for your daily inspiration.
