Here's To New Beginnings

Good Sunday morning all!  Here's a clean and simple card for you today.  I started with a piece of white card ad used the Decorative Squared Octagons and taped three of the smaller dies together and randomly cut them into the card all over.  I cut the Dandelion Stained Glass in black card and used a piece from my background stash to back it with.  It was created by using Coral Crush and Pumpkin Patch Pixie Sparkles.  I added it with mounting foam to the top left corner.  I cut the Here's To New Beginnings in black and glued it to the lower right corner of the card.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

I love the card and I have the die as these quick paper pieced cards are my favorite. I also loved the square floral dies from a few years back.
Everyone, hope your week is starting off well,

Hi Sue and everyone, a much brighter and more Sue card today. Reminds me a little of paper pricking, which I did try years ago. Love the pop of colour and shimmer Sue and the sentiment is im hoping very apt for me. I've had a terrible couple of years as I'm sure many of us have, but here's to new beginnings 😊
Hugs to all

I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn't get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Wilfred helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I never believe it but I took the risk to take a loan of $1000. and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I earn $12,500 in 6 working days, the most joy is that I can now take care of my family I don't know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services.
