Just Believe
Good Sunday morning all! This is a really easy card for doing batches for Christmas. I started with a piece of card covered with a piece of sticky adhesive sheet. I used the Persian Dawn Gilding Flakes all over the sticky sheet and I used a piece of Rubitscubit pad to move the flakes around, then refine and remove the excess. Next I used the Slimline Rectangle Frames die and cut a white frame and added it over the gilded background with mounting foam. I cut the Slimline Holly Swirls Background in black and glued it to the background inside the frame. I cut a Pierced Flag in white and attached it across the lower part of the card. I cut the Just Believe sentiment in black and glued it to the flag. I used the Poinsettia Trio set and cut the smallest one in white, added a gold centre then attached it to the left side of the flag. From the Foliage Pieces, I added several white pine sprigs as accents. I added tiny white pearls to the Holly Swirls Background. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 4 3/4" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. What a really effective card today and so easy to make. (the clearing up afterwards might take a while as I always make a terrible mess with gilding flakes!)
