Hello crafters! I thought it was about time to show off the Lesley die. I started with a piece of aqua card and embossed it with the
Tulip Twist embossing folder. Next I cut two of the
Eliza dies in white and backed them with vellum. For the focal element, I cut the
Lesley die in white and backed it in white. I turned it in a diamond orientation and used the two Eliza dies beneath but on the sides. I cut the centre of the
Avery die in white and stacked it in the centre. I used the
Just Because shadowed sentiment cut in aqua with a white backing shadow and seated it stacked on top of each other in the middle of the card with foam. White and aqua mats and layers were used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. Morning. Firstly, Aqua is my most favourite shade (I think) but I love all foundation cardstock. I really need to add folders to my gift list there are so many I'd love to own and more just released, I'm sure I was born to be poor and your gorgeous samples don't help making my mouth water for dies I've told myself I don't need lol. I love how you laid Eliza over Lesley the two are made for each other, such a pretty sample to keep looking at.
Hope you have a lovely day whatever your plans xxx
Hello Sue and all
Lovely card. The ambossing folder is a standout, Lesley is gorgeous and of course the aqua and white - perfect !

Hello Sue,
Such a fresh and clean looking card today, aqua and white go so well together. Lesley has to be one of my favorite dies from this collection. I love all the swirls. Some of the waste bits from this die make great little additions to your floral elements.
Have a great day.

Such a lot of detail and texture - bet it's great 'in the flesh'.
Hi Sue,
Awesome! I do like Eliza and she is on my list. The aqua colour is one of my top 3 colours too. I've never sent anyone a 'just because' sentiment but it's about time that I started as it must be a really happy feeling to receive one. So, Thank you. Hugs xx Pauline in S.A.

Hi Sue. Well as always a beautiful card !!! Aqua is one of my favourite shades of foundations card. I love how you have mixed and matched your dies together to create this gorgeous card. I love them all, especially ELISA which has been on my list for a while now. Lesley is a beautiful die set to. I think backing dies with Vellum gives such a dreamy, elegant look. The shadowed " Just because" word die really stands out. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous card.
I really loved yesterday's card Sue. I have the sewing accessories die set and I am going to make a sewing card for my mother-in-laws birthday. I am going to have a play with the dies and see what I can come up with, but you are so inspiring Sue, you make it all look so easy. Thank you. Lots of love from Tres X X X
This is so delicate and beautiful.
And as a result of these lovely dies a most beautiful card, just love the white and aqua...thank you for sharing this with us...luv Ursula xx
