Thanks

Hi crafters!  I have one of my favourite styles of cards to share with you; a cascading floral!  I started with the 3D Bubble Burst embossing folder and embossed a piece of coconut white card.  I coated it with spray glue, the sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz all over it.  Next I used the Spiral Pearl Flower and made seven layered flowers of various sizes.  I used Powder Pink for the top layer, Antique Silver card for the middle layer and white for the backing.  I added some shape to each flower by bending the petals to round them.  I added them across the card and used the leaf from the set to add as accents along the way.  The Noble Thanks die was cut in powder pink and Antique silver which I slightly offset behind it.  I then added the word to a white backing shadow and mounted it in the lower corner of the card.  The card was completed with Powder Pink, Antique Silver and white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now. Sue x.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, wow this looks fantastic, I love all the 3d flowers and with the glitter behind it is amazing. Another to add to my 'need to make' list.

Hi Sue. Clean fresh and beautiful. This is a design I go to if my brain freezes. Either one of your flower dies or your first butterfly die collection, either the same colour for the cascading element or colours in various shades of pastels, it's such a quick card to make but always looks beautiful, and useful for many occasions. Sending love to you for the day xxx

Good morning Sue and all.
Another beauty Sue to make me wonder where YOU get your inspiration. I get up in the morning knowing that you will be there with your latest inspirational gift and am not disappointed.
Today's card is beautiful and I think maybe achievable even for me.
Thank you Sue.
Hugs

Simply beautiful Sue

Jackie Durrant said...

I always love your cascading florals Sue and this is no exception. I wouldn't have thought of mixing the silver with the coloured card but it certainly works xx

Barbara said...

Lovely card Sue!
The embossing is just beautiful.

Eunice Astle said...

Love this card Sue, simple but yet so regal.

karenlotty said...

Pretty card SUE I love the colour combination of the flowers

Lisbeth said...

Hi Sue. Love these flowers and the design of the card really shows them off nicely. What a great idea to use a drop shadow on the word die before adding it to the backing shadow. It gives the word real depth.
I have just had a sneaky peak at your forthcoming launch and I think that all the peacock elements look simply stunning.

Deb E Isle of Wight said...

Tressa said...

I like the design of this card. Having the spray of flowers as the focal point in this is a really nice idea.

fluffycat said...

Hi Sue, I too am a fan of this style of card. With a change of flower or colour or background you can create so many cards that look very different.

Trying not to look at your new release just yet but I'm not sure how long I will hold out.

Yorkie girl - good to see you again, hope things are more settled for you now.
