Sending Best Wishes

Hi crafters!  Need a quick card?  This is a great option!  I started with a piece of Silver Sparkle Alcohol ink card from Ranger.  I used Sunshine Yellow and Red Pepper alcohol ink on it.  Next, I embossed it using the Sublime Swirls embossing folder to add texture.  I added a thin black mat to it and added mounting foam to raise it.  I added it to a larger piece of white card that I added Iced Snow to the edge for a bit of sparkle.  I cut the Birthday Circle in both white and black and shadowed it, then glued it to the centre of the card.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  7" in size.  All for now Sue x

What a cheerful background but easy and quick enough to change the colour for one of those emergency last minute cards, just what we need. To any of our blog friends that are unwell with this virus I send my love, I know of one lovely blog friend suffering so lots of caring hugs and all my love comes to you if you're feeling up to popping in. To all other blog family please stay safe xxx

Hi Sue. What a lovely cheerful card to take our minds off this horrible situation. As the sentiment die is so decorative you really don't need to add anything else to the card. Great idea.

Hi Sue
A gorgeous clean and simple card with a fabulous background. This has put me in the mood to make some backgrounds, I don’t have any alcohol inks so I’ll play with my pixie powders instead

Love, hugs and stay safe everyone

This card is gorgeous! I love the texture and the sentiment is perfect! I can’t say enough positive things about your sentiment dies! If you can’t find what you need in Sue Wilson’s dies, you haven’t looked hard enough plus there’s always new ones! Thank you Sue!
