For Someone Special

Good Sunday morning all!  I embossed a piece of white card with the Quilted Pillow embossing folder.  Next I used the Double Stitched Ovals and cut a wide frame out of wisteria card.  I added mounting foam to the back of the frame to attach it to the background.   I used the Pansy Trio Stampcut die and inked it with a Black Archival ink pad and ran it through the die cutting machine.  I did this three times, then coloured all of them with Distress markers.  I used Shaded Lilac, Fossilised Amber and Crushed Olive.  I attached the flowers on opposite sides of the frame.  I added some glue to the flower centres then sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on them.  I cut the For Someone Special sentiment out of both wisteria card and black card.  I shadowed the sentiment then added it to the centre of the frame.  The card was completed with white, wisteria and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8"   in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue
Happy Sunday everyone x
Your stampcuts dies are all on my wish/want/got to have list. I remember when the Wisteria colour card first came out (many years ago), and it was on every card I made. It is such a pretty colour and perfectly showcases the gorgeous shades you’ve used for your Pansy trio x

Lisbeth - if you put Creative Expressions Quilted Pillow Embossing Folder into your search engine you should get lots of results from e-bay and Amazon and quite a few craft shops. Alternatively use the product code EF3D-025. Good Luck.
