Hello bloggers! I am back at the silver sparkle card and the alcohol inks for this one! I used
Indigo, Sailboat Blue and Cool Peri alcohol inks on to the
silver sparkle card. I loved the way it came out like a night sky with the indigo really leaving darker patches throughout. Next I cut the background of the
Spread Your Wings die out of
vellum. I cut the decorative part of the die out of Khaki card, white card and Sky Blue card. I used the Khaki version as the base and nipped away the words out of the white version and glued them on top on the khaki card version. I did the same thing with the birds out of the sky blue card version. I carefully glued it onto the vellum backing and then used
cosmic lacquer onto the leaves to give them a glossy look. I completed the card with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 7 1/2" n size. All for now. Sue x

Sue, we're on lockdown lol.
Oh my word this is just gorgeous. The inked background the vellum everything, I really wish I had the capacity to see a vision in my mind then put that vision together and finish like this, I'd be sooo happy.
Sending love to you and all. Wherever you are in this poorly world please stay safe and keep those we love safe. To those like myself that have a daughter and a lovely friend nursing I'm thinking of you at this frightening time ❤
Hi Sue, beautiful card. Love the background and the vellum and khaki look amazing.

Good Morning Sue.Another beautiful card this morning. You amaze me with your continued inspiration during these worrying times. Will we ever get back to normal. I hope so. I tried the technique you did yesterday but with pixie powders. It worked but maybe I have used too much spray glue. It's usable though. I am so pleased. Thankyou. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them this morning. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
A lovely card to start the day with!!!!
Keep safe,

Good morning Sue Beautiful card the blue background is amazing I love the look you have achieved with the vellum
Lovely card Clever idea to cut the background to the die in vellum! It really makes the focal point “pop” and the paper piecing is just so pretty
Hi Sue - another clever card, another beautiful blue background and a great use of vellum. You've inspired me to make some background papers during this awful lockdown we're having. Stay safe and stay indoors crafting eveyone. Sending best wishes

Fabulous night time background with these colors of alcohol inks on silver sparkle card. Wish I had some of this silver sparkle card to play with as I craft. Thanks for sharing.
A great night time background makes for a lovely card!
This is a wonderful die and a card in itself. They are so useful for quick cards.

Hi Sue, what a beautiful background to showcase the die. Fabulous. Hugs xxx Pauline
Truly beautiful Sue :)
A beautiful background for this great die. One I can replicate, thanks to you Sue, once I get some alcohol inks. This would also make a lovely background for your flying owl. Thank you for all your inspiration Sue & keep safe.
Get well soon to all our virus sufferers,
Hi Sue. I do particularly like this die and what you have done here to create this card really gives a sense of a dreamy sky at dusk. Great idea.

A beautiful card today and so perfect for our loved friend Lorraine Eastwood aka Laine1972 who lost her battle with Cancer.
For Laine:
"Spread your wings and fly Angel, your life has touched us all. Your wings so very delicate, but your spirit conquers all. You gave us so much joy on earth but God now reclaims his prize. Spread your wings and fly Angel, let your wings take to the skies. We will miss you dearly, but your transition is complete. Your wings are now an Angel’s, back home you must retreat."
Stay safe and healthy.
