Thinking Of You
Good Sunday morning all! I pulled out a couple of jars of Glitter Kiss for this card. I started with a piece of white card and randomly applied Antique Rose Glitter Kiss and Sahara Gold all over. I allowed it to dry thoroughly then used the Double Stitched Square die set and cut a larger square out of the centre. I added mounting foam to the outside frame and mounted it on a piece of white card. I cut the Lesley die in white, then glued it over the square piece. I used the inner die from the Lesley die set to cut the centre out of it. I added mounting foam to the back and attached it to a piece of white card. Turning it to a diamond orientation, I attached it over the outside frame. I cut the inside of the Lesley die in white and recessed it down into the aperture. I cut the Thinking of You die in Antique gold card and glued it to the aperture. I cut the Exquisite Poppy die in white and used a bit of the Sahara Gold Glitter Kiss on the edges of the flower. I attached it to the left side of the card and added some white leaves. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 7" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.

ReplyDeleteMorning Sue and all Wilsonettes, still dark here, our clocks get altered next weekend. However today we have such a beautiful sample with the Sarah Gold and Antique Rose Glitter Kiss, how lovely they look together and what a stunning backdrop to the Lesley dies. What a way to greet us this Sunday morning.

ReplyDeleteHi Sue. What a lovely card today. I do particularly like the antique rose glitter kiss, but I wouldn't have thought of using it with gold. It has turned out really nicely hasn't it? Love the embossed design in the centre and how it adds more interest to the design.
