You're Wonderful

Hello bloggers!  I strted today's card by covering a piece of card with Vintage Violet Glitter Kiss  (it is really a very pretty navy blue in real life) and allowing it to dry well.  Next I embossed it with the new Quilted Pillow 3D embossing folder for texture.  I cut it into three equal parts and added them to a piece of white card with mounting foam.  Next I cut the Stella die in white.  I cut the largest die as the backing then cut the decorative die and added it to the backing.  I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the circular die in the centre.  I used Salty Ocean distress oxide around the edge of it then munted it with foam in the centre of the die.  I added the Stella die to the background, then accented it with Cosmos Flowers in opposite corners.  I used Salty Ocean ink on the edges of the petals then a tiny bit of Black Soot ink after that on each petal.  I assembled all the flowers, then cut a Magnolia Corner that I nipped apart and used as leafy embellishments to the flowers.  I added three white flatback pearls on the opposite corners, then completed the card with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8" in size.  All for now Sue x

Good morning Sue I love this card the blue quilted background is beautiful and Stella and the flowers are so pretty

Lisbeth said...

Hi Sue. There is something very pleasing about the combination of navy and white. It looks so smart and clean and can be quite a masculine look but with the addition of the lacy element it has turned into a nice feminine card. Love that embossing folder you have used for the background, it will have to go on my wish list.
