Wonder

 Hello crafters!  I started with a piece of white card and used the flowers from the Poinsettia Trio and cut them randomly all over the card, getting them as close as possible without overlapping them.  I covered another piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet, then adhered the first sheet with the cut outs to it.  Next I paper pieced all the poinsettias back into the card and used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz to fill in the remaining exposed adhesive areas in the flowers.  I cut the word Wonder out of black card and cut the shadow backing out of white vellum.  I glued the word to the shadow then glued it to the background.  Using the Foliage Pieces set, I cut several pieces of foliage,  a few pine cones and a berry sprig and attached it to the side of the sentiment.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now. Sue x

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another gorgeous card, I love the glitter behind the flowers, you can see that clearly in the close up, and the backdrop of vellum for the sentiment, I would never have though of that. Another one to add to my very long list of cards to make. xx

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

Less is more. Keeping the elements simple has enabled us to see the beauty of the background. Certainly a Sue Wilson classic. Thank you Sue.

Hi Sue. I love how you have created the background, but I love even more, the splash of colour in the corner with the sentiment.
