Especially For You

Hello crafters!  More Endless Options dies for today's card offering!  I started with a piece of coconut white card and embossed it with the new Diagonal Floral Vines 3D embossing folder.  Next I used the Paulette Edger die set and cut a bunch of the solid scalloped edger from the set out of Soft Salmon card.  I added mounting foam to the back and ran them along the open areas in between the floral vine rows.  Next I cut the Paulette Background out of Soft Salmon card and backed it in white.  I used the edger dies to cut away the sides of it, leaving a wide border.  I glued it vertically on to the card. I cut a Decorative Flag die and added it with foam across the card.  The Especially For You sentiment was cut in coral and black card, shadowed, then glued to the flag die.   I stamped the Jasmine stamps in black on Coral card and cut them out with the Jasmine die and assembled three flowers.  I added the flowers at the end of the flag die.  The card was completed with white, soft salmon and coral mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, wishing you a very Happy Birthday, hope you have a lovely day. Today's card made me think of a tree with its branches reaching out to everyone. Does that sound daft or am I still half asleep? Whatever, it is lovely and very different and I love the soft salmon card.
