For You

Hi crafters!  For this simple card, I started with some Stellar Ice Luna Paste through the Retro Christmas mask (unfortunately it has been discontinued).  I allowed the Luna Paste to dry overnight, then added a multi layered frame to it.  I used the Double Stitched Square die set to add a wide white base frame and a thinner black frame to the top.  I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the decorative Flags.  I tucked the end under the edge of the frame and added some flowers to it from the extra die in the Magnolia Corner set.  I cut them from white card with a sticky adhesive sheet and added Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz for a bit of bling.  I used the Magnolia Corner cut apart to add leafy accents around the flowers.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  7 3/4" in size.  All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue hope you are both well. Calming subtle and beautiful, it's the kind of inspiration to have at hand when your mind needs some gentle TLC if you've had a 'crazy' kind of day. This would be my soothing focal point to help with relaxation. Does that make sense?

FOR YOU I hope your day is calm.
STAY SAFE KEEP CARING KEEP CRAFTING ❤ xxx

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, such a beautiful creation today, I love the Lunda Paste and the stencils (which I have got) I can remember you telling me and demoing to me the Stencil and Luna paste when I saw you at Ally Pally a few years ago, if I recall you did it in a blue paste and it was gorgeous, such good memories that we retain.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Beautiful but not sure of the size - think I'd like to see as an A5 or 5x7, but all the same can take the inspiration away - so as always thanks for sharing.

The Luna Paste gives a lovely sheen and texture to your beautiful card design. The added extra flowers from your Magnolia set are a great accent to your design. Hugs
