Friends Are The Flowers

Hi crafters!  Here is a pretty one from the latest release.  I started with one of our new 3D embossing folders (and a personal fav!) called Rose Bed and embossed a piece of white card for the background.  Next I cut two of the Mallory die out of Arctic Blue card.  I cut one of them in half and then cut the Priscella die in white and added the two halves of the Mallory die so they extended from the sides.  I added the full Mallory die on top of the Priscella die with foam.  I stamped a sentiment and then cut a frame for it using the Double Stitched Ovals and added it with foam over the sentiment.  I made three Cosmos Flowers of different sizes and glittered them before assembling them and added them to opposite corners around the card.  I added some white leaves from the set.  The card was completed with Arctic Blue and white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  8 3/4" in size.  All for now. Sue x

    Ohhh this is definitely our Sue's trade mark the kind of samples that captured our hearts - well mine anyway. The delicate flowers that sparkle, the tactile background and the dies that work so beautifully together, just two final touches that only you wowed us with that we no longer see are the Sue Wilson bows and the ornate stick pins, but as in all craft trends come and go. The sentiment is beautiful and I know for certain that even during the winter months my garden maybe less colourful but due to the blog and the fb group my life has been enhanced by the flowers grown.

    Have a day full of fun and happiness xxx

    Hi Sue
    This is gorgeous. Priscella and Mallory are perfect playmates. Arctic blue is the most beautiful shade of delicate blue and that embossing folder - well I think I might have to get that one! (Even though I have enough EF folders to build a small house with)!

    Hi Sue. What a very pretty lacey card today. Great to see how well the different dies work together. I do love the embossing folder too but not sure if I would have used it on this card as you lose some of the detail on the dies with it.

    Hello Sue,

    A pretty and delicate looking card this morning. The soft color of the Artic Blue shows off the lace detail to your dies that go so well together and everything is shown off by the lovely embossing detail. Stunning.

    Have a wonderful day.
