Fabulous Is What You Are!
Hello there my crafty friends! I have a "fabulous" card for you today! LOL I started by creating a pixie powder background. I used Purple Violet, Aqua Lagoon, Midnight Blue and Emerald Green Pixie Powders. Once dry, I cut the Fabulous Bold word die out of it eight times. I embossed a wide strip of it using the Art Deco Flowers embossing folder. I glued the embossed piece to a piece of white card and then added a thin black strip down the join. I glued all of the Fabulous die cut down the right side of the card. I stamped the rest of the sentiment and cut it out with the tag die from the Fabulous Die/Stamp Combo set and added it below the words. Using the Petal Pocket Flower set, I cut one of each size out of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet attached to it. I glittered the flowers with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz, then assembled them and added them to the card corner. I used some Mosaic Leaves in white as accents. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size.
