Hi Bloggers! I started today's card using a piece of
Silver Sparkle Yupo Paper. I used Patina alcohol ink on it then added some blending solution to move the colour around a bit. Next, I used the
Double Stitched Rectangles and cut two frames out of the centre of the card. I added mounting foam to the backs of the two frames, then added the original card to another piece of card, giving the background and up and down look to it. I cut the
Hello Shadowed die/stamp combo out of white, added an offset black shadow then glued it to the white shadow backing and added it across the centre of the card. I stamped the Sweet Friend sentiment and cut it out with the tag die. I added it below with mounting foam. Using the
Button Flower set, I created a single stalk with multiple flower heads and buds. I used
Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz to give the flowers a bit of bling, then added it to the lower left corner of the card. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue what a lovely way to show your friends how much they mean to you. I've found some lovely blog friends here although only via blog posts you get a sense that people care and worry about each other, sometimes you get it right sometimes it just isn't what you first thought, but the feeling I get is that you bought a lot of friendships together here and it's a lovely feeling to see the same blog friends here daily. You have celebrated friendship beautifully with today's inspiration, we have a lot to thank you for Sue for bringing our little daily group together.
Have a day of laughter and stay well everyone xxx
Love this card Sue, stunningly beautiful background xx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, such a stunning sample today with that gorgeous bluish colour and white, amazing how you can achieve that. I do love your choice of sentiment with the small stamped word at the bottom, says it all doesn't it.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

I love the dramatic colours of this card it certainly brings the sentiment and flowers to life. Steph you are so right this blog has kept me going everyone is so caring and friendly Sue without you these difficult times would have been a lot worse.Take care everyone x
Hello Sue, a fabulous card, so elegant.
Kitty, I remember this card from the April die release and I am pleased that Sue has shared the technique as at the time I thought it might have been a pixie sparkle used to create the background. Thank you Sue for sharing.

Good Morning Sue. Ohhh WOW what a beautiful background for this mornings card. The colour is just fabulous ... I really must get round to using the alcohol inks ... But ... you keep on bringing new ideas that I want to try them all out ... And then I forget which ones I have seen. I think these are called senior moments 😂 . Well ... I don't think I will forget this colour for a while. A beautiful work of art. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
