Best Wishes


Hello crafters!  I started this card by embossing a piece of coconut white card using the Quilted Pillow Embossing folder (I really love this one, don't you?)  Next I cut the Paulette Background out of Soft Salmon card.  I backed it with Coral card then used the Paulette Edgers to cut away the sides of the background.  I added mounting foam to raise them and added them to the sides of the embossed card.  Next I cut the Magnolia Corner twice out of white card.  I glued the Magnolia Corners facing each other in the centre of the card.  I used the extra flower die in the set and cur enough flowers out of Coral card to make six flowers.  I added them atop the spots in the corner where the flowers sit in the die cut.  I cut the Best Wishes die out of Coral card and glued it in the centre between the Magnolia Corners.  The card was completed with white, soft salmon and coral card mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now,. Sue x

  1. Hiya Sue, these two colour choices look quite orangeish but the photos don't show how delicate they really are, believe me they are the prettiest of shades. I love the quilted pillow folder but don't have it, once I've had the payment for the last two cards I've made I'll have to order it, but there's a couple of the 3d folders you've shown lately I'd also really love, hohum lol. There's no nicer way to wake up 6am would be boring here in the U.K. without Particraft and the gorgeous inspiration like this you bring, thank you xxx
