Hi guys! Today's card is a real quick one! I made a pixied background using
Midnight Blue and White Pearl. I made a multi layered frame out of the
Double Pierced Noble Oval die set. I cut both the
Dragonfly and the Butterfly from the Industrial Chic set out of coconut white card and attached them to the edge of the frame. From the
Inspirational Words die set, I cut the word "dream" several times and stacked them up then glued them into the centre of the frame. The card was completed with white on white mat and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8" in size.

Love this card,giving a different take on the steam punk theme.
Good morning Sue,
You really can't beat a pixie powder background and this one is stunning! Love the beautiful vibrant colours, it may have been quick to make but is very striking.x
Hi Sue. A dream, this explains the Pixie background, it's just beautiful and as I have those two colours it's time to see how mine differs as it's bound to be totally different and that's the beauty of Pixies, I may even lay two sheets of card together and make a double dream ☺ it really shows the beauty of the dies too so yes, its a winner.
Sending a day of love and happiness to you xxx
Good Morning Sue and all
Stunning card this morning. The white die cuts on the pixie powder background works so well together. I think I need to add the midnight blue to my collection.
Crafty hugs and well wishes to all...... Wendy

May be a ‘quickie’ Sue, but it’s pretty. Your Double Stitched dies are fabulous, don’t know what we did without them.
Annette x
Hi Sue,
Great to see two DREAM cards posted back-to-back like this, love this more girly sample just as much as yesterday's - the only downside for me is that I ordered some Pixies last night but passed up on the Midnight Blue as I didn't think I needed that one yet - how wrong was I! - the background on this card is just fabulous with the pigment splitting into different shades of blue...oh well, it will just have to go top of the list for next time...
Izzy
Good morning Sue and everyone

Your design is beautiful
I send my usual good wishes and hugs to everyone
Take care folks

I have only just joined this blog, but I can see I am going to really love it - beautiful cards and great inspirational ideas
Thank you
Beautiful again and just love the dragonfly die which I have used a bit on a mixed media project, along with the Art and Create word dies...As commented yesterday a wonderful collection of dies....
Good morning Sue,
What a beautiful card, the white oval frame really makes the pixie powders background stand out. A truly work of art . Yvonne xx
Hello Sue,

Hi Sue,
a beautiful card and a stunning background. I need to have these pixie powers...
Rolf xxx
Lovely! Xxx
Can't say I ever DREAM of mechanical insects or rusting gear swirls, but a guy might, although maybe not as beautifully as you. The industrial corner is also a dream to work with, although my rust isn't quite up to snuff.
Happy Friday, fellow crafters.
Best, Donita
Good morning Sue Beautiful card I just love the pixie background &the lovely butterfly & dragonfly I'm waiting for this die to come back into stock in my local craft shop let's hope it will be soon!
Laine glad your MRI went to plan yesterday
Myra nice to see you back hope you are feeling much better now
Sending good wishes to all
It maybe a simple design but is so effective. I really love it. X
Hi Sue
Love the background and only two pixie powders, simple but still a wonderful card for someone to receive.
Regards
Heather R Oxfordshire
Hi Sue, a beautiful card. I love the colours in the background. Your industrial chic dragon flies are different.
Hi Sue, a totally different take on steampunk and I really like it. I am amazed at how many different colours you have achieved in the background using just two pixies, it is gorgeous and I do like the butterfly and dragonfly dies.

Hello Sue
Beautiful card with that gorgeous blue pixie powdered background and the two Industrial Chic dies.
It may be simple as you say but it is so effective!
Lesley S x
Hi Sue
Beautiful colour achieved with the pixies. Looks great with the white contrast.
Love Helen xxx
Love the way you have stacked 'Dream' & surrounded it with the Oval Noble die. It really looks beautiful set onto the Pixie background, & those industrial dies! Just gorgeous x
Afternoon Sue, just when I thought that I didn't need anymore butterflies in my collection, you proved me wrong! The dragonfly is great. It's always good to have a few simple card ideas to make when time is of the essence, although I wouldn't say that this is exactly simple. It's really different. Hugs xx Pauline in S.A.
Hi Sue
Simply beautiful, love the pixe powder background and I must get the white pearl one.

Fabulous card with these butterflies and the stunning pixied background !!
A great card Sue. Love the butterfly and dragonfly. Bought them as soon as I saw them. Thank you for sharing this.
Fantastic card sue. Love the colours used in this back ground. Great dies. Laura O Springfield
Hello Sue,
Lovely card, the Pixie Powder background is gorgeous.
Love all of the dies you have used. It’s all FAB.
Hugs Brenda xxx
A definite my kinda card I haven’t used the white pearl on white card I will try that one out for sure
Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
Pixie powders are a fantastic product, the results never cease to amaze and please me, i really should get them out and have a play. What a very different card from yesterdays, even though you are using dies from the same collection the look and feel is transformed by that fantastic background. I love the butterfly and dragonfly dies, they are so quirky and provide gorgeous accents to the card. It is clear that my next purchase MUST be the Industrial Chic Collection, may even resort to criminal activities or selling my services to fund this overwhelming desire:-) Fabulous card Sue, many thanks for sharing it with us.
Had a very quiet day today on Doctors orders, spent it watching the Winter Olympics and marvelling at the bravery and talent on display...they had Christopher Dean on and showed his performance to Barmum with Jayne from 1983, it was a blast from the past and reminded me of how great they were. I used to love roller booting and skating when i was younger, don’t have the muscle power in my legs anymore though, age can be so cruel and rob you of some truly enjoyable pursuits....i guess i should stick to paper crafting as an armchair sport, its much safer:-)
We have an unwanted interloper who keeps frequenting our window ledges much to Darceys fury...i have never heard her make such loud, threatening noises before, she really doesn’t like this new cat called Sandy that has just moved into the sheltered housing unit next to our house. Brodie, who i thought would beat it to a pulp on sight, seemed unconcerned but Darcey just wants to protect the family and her home and keeps chasing it away, i hope it gets the message soon because cat fights can be scary and noisy if they’re a screamer like my Darcey:-)
Carmen, thanks for asking about my Mum, she’s doing fine after a tough few weeks with a chronic chest infection and high temperature...and no, she never stopped smoking even though she could barely breathe, i just give up:-( She says nicotine is as bad as heroine and just as difficult to give up, I’m just so glad i never started smoking, what a massive waste of crafting money i say!
Myra, hope that you’re feeling better today, give my love to Maureen and Sabaxxx
Stephanie, hope that you enjoy your trip to the stamp show and get plenty of inspiration and goodies.
Yvonne, isnt it about time you finished that card, I’m a patient woman but this delay is ridiculous, its worse than the local ambulance service....yes, you are THAT bad!
Pat, how is Sarah doing? When is she next due at the hospital? I do hope she is well and thriving:-)
Huge hugs to all my blog besties, though missing our absent friends greatly:-( Plenty of cuddles for anyone who cares to take one tooxxx
Love and crafty hugs
