Miss You
Good Sunday morning all! I was playing with the Glitter Kiss for today's card offering. I started by coating a piece of card with the Rose Copper Glitter Kiss and allowing it to dry. I used the Avery die and cut an aperture in the middle. I added mounting foam to the back of the card to raise it. I added a piece of white card to the back of it. I used the two outer cutting dies from the Avery to cut a thin frame and I glued it to the outside edge of the aperture. I cut the Avery die in white and recessed it down into the aperture opening. I cut the centre of the die in white and added a white backing to it. Using a bit of mounting foam, I added it to the centre for a raised look. I used some of the leftover bit of the Glitter Kiss card (I always make a bit extra!) and cut the Miss You sentiment from it. I added a black shadow to it then glued it to the centre of the raised die cut. To add a bit of detail to the edges, I cut the Decorative Squares die out of white card. I cut away two of the edges and glued them to the edges of the Glitter Kiss card. I used the other two sides and cut them in half to add a wider border for the Glitter Kiss to sit on (so no waste!). I used the Cosmos Flower die set to make a single flower using the outlines. I added the flower then cut pieces of the Magnolia Corner in white to use as accents. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue. Love the simplicity of the additional decoration on this card which needs to be there but does not detract from the really pretty Avery die cuts. Love it.
