Wish You Were Here

Hello bloggers!  His one of my favourite cards from the most recent die release!  I selected Custard card to use for the background and embossed it with our new 3D Flourish Frame Embossing Folder.  Next I cut the Priscella die in white and added a white backing to it and attached it to the centre of the embossed background.  Next I cut the Mallory die in Custard card and layered it up in the centre.  I stamped my sentiment which is part of the clear stamps set that the flowers are from called Cosmos Flowers.  I matted it with thin black and custard card mats and added it with foam.  Next I stamped all the flowers in black and cut them out with the matching Cosmos Flower die set.  I inked thee centres and edges with Fossilised Amber Distress Oxide ink, then used spray glue on them and glittered them with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz before assembling them and added pearls to the centres.  I stamped the leaves and cut them out with the matching dies in the Cosmos Flower die set and inked them with Forest Green Distress Oxide ink.  I added the flowers around the focal element then used the greenery as accents around them.  The card was completed with white, custard and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, todays card is very pretty, the custard card is such a soft shade of yellow and the flowers are the perfect finishing touch. Have a good day everyone. Bx

Hi Sue. It really is gorgeous and the Custard card really is a versatile shade of that makes sense? Not just for Easter. Oooh, I really really need your new Cosmos flower and matching stamp, after using the Peonie die and stamp the other day I have my Orange blossom die and stamp ready to use on my table. If you're on your travels somewhere warm,pretty and has a beach, I wish I were there too lol. Whatever and wherever enjoy xxx

Hello Sue and all
Oh, the custard card is so lovely, a fabulous card and the flowers are spectacular. In fact, they are next on the list, the stamps to die for with your flowers are so pretty and realistic. Am away at the moment and just logging on when I can so hopefully can do so each day

Good Morning Sue and all
What a stunning card this morning , the custard card stock really brings the design together. So much detail is popping through on the sample from 3D embossing folder. The cosmos flowers are so very pretty and just add that finishing touch to the design.

I agree with you, Sue. This card is the easy favorite of this release samples (and many beautiful competing samples). I also find the cosmos stamps and die set on the top of my wish list. The stamps really set off this die. Love the result plus the colors used in this card.
Thank you,
