Hello there my crafty friends! Today's card started with another pick out of my
Pixie Powder crafty stash! The Pixie Powdered sheet used Plum Twist and Midnight Blue Pixie Powders. I also decided to use one of the
Gemini dies called Perseus. I cut the decorative die from the
Perseus set vertically down the left side of the card so it cut into the card. I cut another one of the
Perseus die out of black card and offset it behind as a shadow. I backed the piece with white card. Next I cut several of the
Cosmos Flowers out of a piece of white card with a
sticky adhesive sheet attached. I peeled the backing off of the flowers and coated all of them with
Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz. I assembled the three flowers then added them to the lower corner of the card. I used
Trailing Ivy and Lace Edged Leaves cut in white as accents around the flowers. In the upper corner, I used the
Sending Love & Hugs sentiment cut in white with a black shadow behind. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8" in size. All for now. Sue x
Morning Sue.
ReplyDeleteI just love it everything about it, thank you.
This beautiful card is my project for today.
Take care stay safe and have fun Kitty.
Hi Sue. I love how you're going back to the older but still loved dies such as the Perseus die and the trailing ivy (still very much a go to for my sympathy cards) old and new, such a pretty mix such a pretty sample and true encouragement for us to remember that the older dies are still capable of helping us put a smile on someone's face.

ReplyDeleteI am a little confused as to what’s best This time you have die cut the flowers and then Glitterbitz where as you have Glitterbitz’d the card and then die cut?
Take care all
