Miss You

Hello bloggers!  I started this sweet card by creating the background.  I taped the Basketweave stencil to a piece of white card.  I used Clear Texture Paste through the mask.  While the mask wa till in place, I sprinkled Teal Marine and Fuschia Rose Pixie Sparkles all over the mask. making sure to hit all the areas with the texture paste.  I removed the mask and set the background aise to dry thoroughly.  Next I cut three small square white frames using the Cut Corner Squares.  I added mounting foam to the backs of the frames then added a piece of white card o each of them.  I added the squares vertically to the background.  I used some of the flowers from the Elegant Arrangements in the top and bottom frames and inked the flowers with Spun Sugar ink.  In the centre frame, I added the Miss You sentiment cut in black.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 4 3/4"  x  9 1/4" in size.  All for now, 
Sue x

Hi Sue and everyone a very delicate background and card today. I think I bought this stencil the other day at my local craft shop, not had chance to use it yet though. Lovely sentiment and very apt for the last couple of years.

Good Morning Sue. What a gorgeous sight to wake up to this morning. And I don't need to tell you how much I enjoy using my slimline dies. I think it's great when you can put other dies to add the focal point as you have here. I love it. And the co!ours you have used are beautiful. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.

PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏.

Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

Hi Sue
Gorgeous slimline card, love the basket weave background and I was just thinking how amazing some of your new beautiful blossoms or elegant arrangement dies would look in the apertures

Kitty I saw the video too and then when I went back to watch it again it had disappeared from YouTube. It was wonderful to see Sue demo again

Love and hugs to everyone
Pat

Hi Sue. Love the idea of this background and I think if I was going to do something similar I may use lighter colours because I think that the flower panels are getting a bit lost against this rather busy background - sorry
