Wednesday Weekly Card Giveaway

Hi bloggers!  Today's card giveaway is a vellum covered baby blue number.  I started by cutting the Swiss Background out of coconut white card.  I used Duck Egg blue card and backed it.  Using my paper cutter, I cut the background into three equal  strips and added mounting foam to the back of them.  I attached them to another piece of coconut white card for the basis of my background.  I wanted to soften it a bit so I glued a piece of vellum across the entire piece and added white pearls to the corners.  For the focal element, I cut the Bern die in white and backed it in white for a tonal effect.  I cut the centre out of it creating a frame and added mounting foam to the back.  I embossed a small piece of white card with the Dotted Matrix Pinpoint embossing folder and attached the frame to it.  I stamped a sentient and cut it out with the rectangle centre from the centre of the Bern die set.  I inked it lightly with Tumbled Glass ink and attached it in the centre of the frame with foam.  I cut several of the Exquisite Poppies out of vellum and used the Tumbled Glass Distress marker to add veins through the die.  I seated the larger flower on a white satin bow in the lower corner and the smaller flower opposite to it.  I accented both with Olive Branch sprays cut out of white card.  The card was completed with white and duck egg mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x  8 1/2" in size.  Leave a comment if you like this one and would like to be included in the drawing to win it!  All for now, Sue x
