Hello crafters! I started today's card by covering a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet. Next I cut two of the Snowflake Scalloped Border die out of Silver Shine card. I peeled back the backing paper and adhered the two snowflake borders facing each other in the middle of the card. I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed adhesive areas. I cut the card right in the centre of the two borders and trimmed a little bit off of each end. I added mounting foam to the backs of both of the pieces t raise them. I attached both pieces to another piece of white card with a small gap in between them (maybe an inch gap). I cut the Christmas Greetings sentiment in silver shine card and added it to the shadow backing piece cut in white. I added mounting foam to raise the sentiment, then added it to the gap in the centre. I used the thin scalloped die from the border set and cut it in white two times. I added the thin white scalloped piece to both borders as an accent. The card was completed with white and silver mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue and all.
Another beautiful card showing the versatility of some of the dies. It really does lend itself to your will. I did say I wasn't going to buy any more dies as I'm living in a care home now but I'm sorely tempted.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, it is this sample and the ones on the packaging which prompted me to purchase this die set, which arrived on Friday, I am so pleased I did because there are other samples inside the packaging. I am going to have a go at this sample once my sentiment arrives. Brilliant thank you for sharing xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Good Morning Sue. Now this is beautiful. This is what I call a " LUXURY " card ... And would be made for only the best of my friends and family. I love it and it will be on my list to recreate as soon as my hip and knee get back to normal. Which hopefully won't be long. Thankyou Sue.
Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

Hi Sue. What a lovely Christmas Card (we all know by now how much I like snowflakes at Christmas time). I am hoping I can make something similar with previous snowflake border dies that I have from your previous collections.

Great borders and a very elegant card, beautiful shade of green, my favourite
Thank you Sue
A beautiful sparkly card Sue. A special xx
What a lovely card, the borders look great!
Fantastic card just because it's a boarder die doesn't mean it can only be used as such, this perfectly demonstrates just that, lovely colour way too.

Hi Sue and everyone well I have to admit I wasn't drawn to this one on the launch but have since seen so many amazing cards and different ideas on how to use it. I didnt realise it came in so many parts. But now I feel its a must have. A gorgeous card and loving the sparkle.
