Thanks

Hello bloggers!  I first want to say that the background of this card is in fact silver and black not gold (it looks that way on my computer so it probably does on yours too!)  I used a piece of black card and put a sticky adhesive sheet on it.  I peeled the backing paper off and used Black Diamond Aurora Flakes all over it.  Using the Button Floral Panel die set, I cut the outer frame three times out of white card.  I cut two of them in half and added them to the sides of the third one.  I added one more frame to the very outside from the Buttercup Floral Panel die set.  I cut the Moonflower die in black and added a white backing to it, then seated it in the centre of the outer frames.  I cut a Pierced Flag die in white and added the Noble Thanks sentiment cut in black.  I cut two white butterflies from the Butterfly Delights die set and glued them in the upper right corner of the card.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8"  x  9"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Morning from a mild bright Lancashire.
There's something about silhouette style inspiration that I love and yes your background looks very gold, but no matter the colour we always get so much from your experience expertise and love of craft.
Hope everyone has a nice day no matter what your plans are.
Stay well and safe xxx

Hi Sue. Not too sure about this card, the design looks a bit disjointed which may be because the colours have not come across properly. What a shame after the work you have put in.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a stunning card, the background of black and gold looks amazing, I am sure in natural light is is glorious, I love the way you have created the extended frame in white from the die, which I have, will have a go at this.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

A lovely card which I bet looks quite dramatic in real life. Will be having a go at extending the frames like that. Thank you sue.

Hi Sue Lovely card I like your extended panel around the moonflower panel The background is gorgeous even though it looks gold and not silver

Handmade by Donna x said...

Hi Sue and everyone, firstly it looks goldish on the first pic but on some of the flatter zoomed in versions it looks silver. But either way it looks great and I love the extended frames.

Hugs to all Donna xx

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.
