You're The Best

Hello there my crafty friends!  I started today's card by making the background using Pixie Sparkles.  I tapped Groovy Grape and Coral Crush Pixie Sparkles all over the card, then spritzed it with water to activate the powder.  I allowed it to dry well then cut an aperture in the centre using the Millie die cutting edge.  I embossed the background with the Rope Chain embossing folder, then added mounting foam to the back of the card.  I added the background to another piece of white card then recessed the piece that was cut out of the aperture down into the centre.  I cut the Millie die in white and glued it into the aperture centre too.  I used the two outer cutting edges from the Millie die to make a thin decorative frame that I glued to the outside edge of the aperture opening.  I had some leftover bits from the pixied background so I cut the You Are The Best sentiment out of it as well as the two thin side borders.  I glued the sentiment into the centre of the card.  I added a white strip of card to the side borders (which were cut from the Linear Elegance Edger set) so they stood out a bit more then glued them to the edges of the card.  I cut a flower from the Striped Nasturtium die and made it 3 dimensional, glittered it then added it to the corner of the Millie die with a couple of Lace Edged Leaves as accents.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are  in 7 1/2"  x  8 1/2" size.  All for now.
