All The Best

Hi crafters!  I have selected this aqua and ocean card creation for today's offering, I just love these colours together!  I cut the Martha Background die in aqua and black card.  I used the black as a shadow behind the aqua die.  Next, I used the Martha Edgers to cut away the two sides.  I added a white backing to the side pieces and added mounting foam to raise them.  I attached the sides to a slightly larger piece of white card.  Next I added a strip of ocean card down the middle back section of the centre piece from the background.  I cut two white pieces from the Edger set and glued them atop the centre piece.  I glued the centre piece down onto the white card between the raised sides.  I cut a strip of card just long enough to go from side to side with a small bow to it.  I used the All The Best sentiment cut out of ocean card and black card.  I shadowed the sentiment and glued it to the strip.  Next I stamped and cut out enough flowers to make three different sized Jasmine flowers.  I seated the flowers around the sentiment strip and used pieces of the Magnolia Corner as accents.  The card was completed using white, aqua and ocean mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2"  x  7 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue and everyone. Firstly im so happy that everything went well for you yesterday Doreen. Our daughters wedding had to be cancelled this year, now it won't go ahead until next year. Fingers crossed it goes as well as yours did.
