You Are My Treasure
Hello bloggers! I selected a pixied piece from my background stash to start today's card. I used Aqua Lagoon and Golden Mint Pixie Powders. I used the Clipped Corner Rectangles and made a white frame to go around the bacground. I cut the Underwater Life Frame several times using tan, green card for the majority of the die cut but I added a few of the smaller elements in deep purple, rust and gray. I cut the Message in a Bottle die out of white card and the scroll out of pale blue and attached it to the larger seawwed. I used the You Are My Treasure and Missing You sentiments from the Message In A Bottle set cut in black. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue. The background etc look great, I'm not sure if the bottle should look aged it looks to fresh cut in white but I'd love to know what the message reads lol any way of slitting just below the neck so we can add a slip of paper with a real message? Hope everyone had a nice Easter Sunday. Keep safe and well xxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, firstly thank you for the larger font on the instructions today, it is so much easier to read. Love the pixie background you have made and with all the lovely elements including the message in the bottle and others, but the sentiments are so perfect for this sample and of course can be used for so many different occasions too, fantastic. Thank you Sue xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Good Morning Sue. Wonderful card for the men Sue. I think all your last launch could be dedicated to the men and children. Your backgrounds really set me off I love them and this one is no exception. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. PLEASE STAY SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds
Morning Sue, I think this was one of my favourite cards from the launch, I love making Pixied backgrounds, no 2 ever quite the same. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
Fabulous card. I love all the underwater fauna. Some of these have probably never been made into a die before. Underwater scenes will be enhanced with this set. Raining so hard here and I need to go out. I will feel like I am in an under water scene. Stephanie K

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.
