For You

Good Sunday morning all!  I started with a piece of card that I covered with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled the backing off and coated it with Gemstones Gilding Flakes.  I used a rubitscrubit pad to move the flakes all over the card and refine and remove the excess flakes.  I embossed it with the Ribbon Swirls embossing folder for texture.  For the focal element, I cut the Vivian die out of another piece of card that I added more gilding flakes to in the same manner  I backed the die cut with a white card backing and added the black edge to it using the two outer dies in the Vivian set.  I added mounting foam to the back and added it to the centre of the card.  I cut the centre of the die in white and added a black backing to it then layered it up in the middle.  I used the For You sentiment in black and glued it to a white Pierced Flag die and added it across the centre of the card.  Using the Striped Nasturtiums, I cut the solid flowers out of a remaining piece of the gilded card and added white outlines over the top.  I seated the flower to the left side of the sentiment flag and added Lace Edged leaves as accents in white.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x  6 3/4" in size.    All for
now, Sue x
