Just Another Day In Paradise

Hi bloggers!  I cut the Beach Sailboat Stained Glass die out of aqua card to start today's card.  I added a piece of sticky adhesive sheet to some white card then hand cut it into a half circle shape and added it behind the sailboat in the ocean area.  I used Ice Blue Polished Silk Glitter in the exposed adhesive areas which gave the ocean a bit of bling.  I cut the sailboat a second time in red card and nipped away the flag and the bottom of the boat and glued them on to the original aqua die cut.  Next I cut the middle decorative die for the backing.  I lightly inked the top with Tumbled Glass Distress ink then attached the sailboat die cut to the centre of it.  I used a fine tipped pen and added in some birds to the background.  I cut the outer background die out of cobalt blue card, then backed it with red card to show through the corner designs.  I added the sailboat on to a larger piece of white card and cut the Just Another Day in Paradise sentiment out of cobalt blue card.  I glued it below the sailboat.  The card was completed with white, red and cobalt blue mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 3/4"  in size. 

I posted the list of winners from the blog launch yesterday and we still have several unclaimed dies.  Please scroll down to the post below this one to check the list for your name!   All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue.
I'm loving your new stained glass dies. I quickly looked at them last week and every single design was beautiful and although your photography shows every little detail to tempt us, I bet in real life they look amazing. Another launch, another sell out.
Stay well everyone xx

Good Morning Sue. Brilliant card sample this morning Sue. And yes here you go again making life easier for us crafter to make our man cards. And I can imagine what it would look like using other colours instead of the natural nautical ones. Great job Sue. Thankyou

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.
