For My Friend

 Hello bloggers!  Today's card offering comes from the September release dies.  I started by cutting an oval frame using both the Double Pierced Ovals original set and Set B.  I used the B set to add the very thin outer black frame around the original white ova frame.  I cut the centre die from the Scalloped Lattice Frames set B to add a pretty scalloped background behind the oval frame.  I cut two sections of it.  I backed it with a piece of black card to show through.  I placed the frame and backing onto a piece of Blue Dusk card.  To the side of the blue card, I added thin edges created by using the Striped Swirl Edger thin strip cut in blue dusk card and backed with black card.  I mounted both edges with foam to raise them for dimension.  I stamped my sentiment and used the Double Pierced Noble Circles to cut a multi-layer frame out of white and blue and seated it over my sentiment.  I attached it in the centre of the larger oval frame with mounting foam.  I completed the card with blue flowers cut from the Exquisite poppy die in opposite corners and accented with Lace Edged Leaves in black.  I added two small flowers to the sentiment circle as well.  White, black and blue mats and layers were added to complete the card.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x  7 3/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x
