Wednesday Weekly Card Giveaway

Hello bloggers!!  This is a sort of sneak peek for Thursday shows (4pm and 7pm on C & C) as well as the card offering for today!  I embossed the background with the Art Deco Rose folder to give it some texture.  Next I cut a frame out of black card using the Classic Adorned Rectangle Noble die set.  I love the debossed detail around it!  For the background on the inside of the frame, I used the Lavish Swirls Diagonal die and out of coconut white card,  cut the centre decorative die repeatedly until I had enough to cover the entire inside area of the frame.  I placed the piece onto another piece of coconut white card that had a double sided sticky sheet attached to it.  I then coated all the remaining exposed areas with Diamond Sprinkles for a tone on tone bling.  I mounted the background behind the frame on the diagonal, just to be a bit different, but you can easily mount it vertically or horizontally if you prefer.  I trimmed away the excess from around the underneath edge of the frame and glued it to my embossed background.  I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the Pierced Flag die and matted it in black using the next size up in the set.  I added it across my frame with mounting foam and created a Cornflower to sit on the edge of it.  I seated the flower on some white tulle, a white satin ribbon bow and a black jute twine bow.  I made two matching stick pins out of black teardrop beads and white pearls and inserted them into the knot of the bow.  I completed the card with a black and white matting with my usual paper pierced inner layer.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x  8 3/4" in size.  Just leave me a comment if you would like to be included in the drawing to win this elegant black and white card.  The winner will be announced on Saturday's blog post as usual!  All for now, Sue x
