You Are A Great Friend

Hi bloggers!  I cut a piece of white card for my background then used the Noble Vintage Label die set and cut a large one and a smaller one for the centre of the card.  I cut one more large one then nipped it in half and glued the cut pieces to the sides of the card.  I cut the foliage panel from the Button Flower Floral Panel die set in green.  I backed it in white and added a white frame around it.  I mounted it horizontally across the centre of the card.  Using the Mini Cosmos die set, I added some small peach coloured flowers to it.  I cut the You Are A Great Friend sentiment out of soft salmon card and added an offset black shadow behind it then glued it in the lower corner.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4"  x  9 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

This is you all over Sue, there would be no mistaking this beautiful serene design for anyone else's.
The sentiment is a special one because all the friends in my world have been born from your blog, not school or work or a special neighbour friend, my special friends are here one I've met and as a nurse she's there for me at my local hospital would you believe (a very small world) and another we contact each other a lot and hold each other up in a crisis. What can I say "thank you for creating Particraft and giving me special friends" xxx

Good Morning Sue. Beautiful. When I first popped in ... my thought straight away was " Sympathy Card ". And although ... you have named it as a friend card ... Which is lovely ... I am thinking ok ... this will solve that feeling when you don't know what to do for the dreaded card you are asked to make. I hope this makes sense. It is calming on the eye and mind and in my opinion perfect for just what I would need it for. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. PLEASE STAY SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.

Hi Sue and everyone I love how you've used the label die on this one. Also I love these leaves from your dies set, so useful for so many things and the little flowers are fabulous. I already have a card designed in my head for those little flowers once I can get them.
Sadly also my local craft shop is closing so I will have to find somewhere else to buy my Creative Expressions goodies from.

Hugs Donna xx

I like a white on white card with just a splash of color that gives it a fresh, clean and elegant look. And I like the way you've used the Noble Vintage Label die set to create the background. Thanks for the inspiration, Sue.

Hugs from Toronto to you all.
Stay safe and healthy.

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.
