Hello there my crafty friends! The
Rose Lady was the second Perfect Portrait in the collection, but I just love the detail in her! I started this card by cutting the
Rose Lady die into a piece of coconut white card. Rather than running the die through the emboss sandwich, I chose to hand emboss her using a ball stylus for maximum depth. It really brings all the detail in the roses out that way. Next I used
Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink on a smoothie and added colour to the roses. I went over the centres with
Worn Lipstick to deepen them. I used
Crushed Olive ink on the leaves. I backed it with Black Gloss card. Next I used the
Background Rectangles die set to add a thin frame of
Black Gloss card and added it atop a wider white frame. I added the frames with mounting foam to raise them. The card was completed with white and black gloss mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue.
Wow she is so pretty, a beautiful card, thank you.
Take care stay safe and have fun Kitty.
Hi Sue from Lancashire. I remember thinking how different these beautiful dies where at the first launch and it wasn't long before so many stunning cards were uploaded our crafting friends round the globe all having their own take on backgrounds and decor etc they were amazing. I've had to stop buying dies (apart from your new penguin, polar bear and the extending frame/borders collection) as I don't think market will be part of my life until we get completely clear of the virus and we get a vaccine, a cold can spiral into pneumonia so until then I'll just have to rely on anything orders I receive, but I've got dies I can work with so that's a plus. I just love to get up and see what inspiration you've given us it's a really lovely start to the day in the UK.
Please please please STAY SAFE it's still really unsafe out there, and so many uncaring people not taking this KILLER seriously. Love to all this Wednesday xxx 💖
Love these type of dies Sue, fabulously stunning card xx Hazel
Hi Sue, Beautiful card this morning.

How lovely to "see" you yesterday, really enjoyed the shows.

Hello Sue
What a lovely lady she is. My poinsettia frame came this morning I hadn't realised until I saw Jamie using it that it had an outer and inner die,stupid of me. Of course you wouldn't design a die with only one use. Take care everyone x
Hi Sue, a very nice card and I love the subtle colouring.
Frances

Good afternoon Sue this is a stunning card. It is just so pretty. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Hi Sue,
She is beautiful. I bought her 2 weeks ago but haven't used her yet. Too busy making messy backgrounds after watching your pixie powders with cling film, technique.
Loved catching up with your demo yesterday and you made a slightly miserable woman very happy.
Hugs xxx Pauline
Hi Sue lovely card and fab die. Thank you Helen Terry x
Very clever design xx
Hi Sue
Lovely card today. I have finally managed to watch your TV appearance from your kitchen. Worth the wait. Can’t wait to see you back properly whenever that may be.
Love Helen xxx
This Perfect Portrait is a very special lady, a Rose Lady, to me. For this was the first sample Perfect Portrait card I made for you. I think she is gorgeous. Loving the look of the glossy black card and the way you added extra depth by hand to the embossing areas. Aren't you thrilled how your Rose Lady speaks to you? I am. I enjoyed your demonstration on C & C from you kitchen. Well done my friend. Hugs
I absolutely love the Perfect Portrait dies Sue, these are a must have that I MUST HAVE!!!!!
The lovely Rose Lady is one of my favorites in your collection. I really like the way you made the roses pop by embossing them by hand. Hugs!
I love the effect Setting it off in black really makes the image pop I think I’ve changed my mind over these portrait dies and they’re on my Wish List now
Love the Papillon lady but I must admit Rose lady is beautiful too.And this card is lovely.
Hugs from Toronto to you all
Stay safe and healthy.
