Many Thanks
Hi bloggers! I selected a piece of Pixie Sparkled card to use as my background. I used Groovy Grape and Blue Wish Pixie Sparkles on a piece of white card then embossed it with the Quilted Pillow embossing folder. I cut it into three sections, added mounting foam then added them to a piece of white card. I cut a frame using the Double Stitched Ovals, added mounting foam to it then add a piece of white vellum to the back of the frame. Using the Elegant Arrangement die set, I cut the stems in green then added the flowers in various shades of pastel card. I arranged all the flowers in the bottom of the frame, I cut the Many Thanks sentiment out of wisteria card and added it to a white shadow backing, then glued it in the top of the frame. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. I love that embossing folder and all the pretty little flowers although I am not too sure about the background colour, perhaps it has not come across too well on the laptop screen.

Pretty card. Thank you for the reminder that we can emboss pixie backgrounds, I really need to try this. Thank you Sue.
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed a week or so, was away & Internet wasn’t safe, came home & a few hours later had a six hour powercut, then Facebook went down! Fingers crossed everything back to normal now!
Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday everyone x
Oh wow such a pretty card. That background is gorgeous. Of course it would be because it’s ‘Pixied’. As much as anyone tried they would never be able to copy that background because the results from every use of Pixie powders or sparkles is different every time - and that’s why I love them so much x
The flowers from your Elegant Arrangement set are beautiful. This may be a thank you card but could be used so many other occasions x
