You Are Amazing

Hello everyone!  I struggled to get the colour to come out right on this one so think pale lavender and white as you look at the pictures.  I used the inside cutting ring from the Innsbruck die set to cut an aperture in the centre.  Next I embossed it with the Rambling Blossoms embossing folder and added mounting foam to the back of it.  I stamped the Floral Paradise stamp in black on the same pale lavender card.  I covered it with a sticky adhesive sheet then coated it with Diamond Snow.  Over the top of the glitter, I used a Milled Lavender distress marker to add some highlights to the flowers (make sure to wipe the tip clean of any glitter when you are done).  I centred it on the aperture then attached the background over it.  Using the Innsbruck die, I made a white frame using the two cutting edges and the outside cutting insert.  I backed it with pale lavender card and mounted foam on the back and added it around my aperture to frame it nicely.  Using the corner from the Austrian Collection, I cut four of them in white card and glued them into the corners of the background.  I added a floral element to the card using the Classic Rose die set.  I made a flower out of white card and used Dusty Concord distress ink on the edges of the petals before assembling it.  I sugared it with Iced snow when it was finished and seated it on a white seam binding messy bow and black jute twine bow.  I made two matching stick pins  to embellish it.  I stamped a small sentiment and cut it out with the small die in the Innsbruck set.  I inked it with Dusty Concord before removing it and mounted it on foam in the corner of my stamped aperture.  The card was then completed with a pierced white mat, two thin mats (black and pale lavender) and a final white mat.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x  8 1//2" in size.  All for now, Sue x
