For You

Hi bloggers!  I started today's card by using the Lustre Polishes across a piece of black card.  I used Tantalising Teal, Apple Fizz and Blue Alure Lustre Polishes randomly on to the card and allowed them to dry well.  Next I cut a large frame out of it and then cut the Paulette Background into the centre piece from the frame.  I backed it with a piece of black card.  I added a multi-layered frame made from a white base and a thin black gloss card frame on top and added it with foam.  I cut a Pierced Flag and used the For You sentiment cut out of an extra piece of the lustre polish card.  I cut one in black and used it as a shadow behind the sentiment.  Using a bit more of the extra card, I cut a Jasmine Flower and added it to the end of the sentiment flag.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now. Sue x

    Good Morning Sue and all.
    What a lovely piece of work you have presented to us today.
    I really like what you do with the lustre polishes I haven't yet bought any and to be honest I don't have room for one more thing (so I keep telling myself) The back-ground and the flower are beautiful. Thank you so much for the inspiration.
    Hugs.

    Hi Sue. I really love this card with the lustre polished card standing out so nicely against the black card. I can appreciate that some people may not like so much black on a card but I think you wouldn't achieve such a stunning creation using any other colour.

    Hello Sue and all
    Just love this, the colour of the lustre polish on the black and my new favourite flower, the jasmine, I have used it quite a bit since it arrived after waiting months for it - definitely worth it-they are so pretty.
    Keep Safe and well everyone
    Hugs

    Not too sure on this one - it looks very dark on my screen. Maybe better “in the flesh”
