Hello bloggers! I started this glittery card by selecting a piece of white card as the background and cutting two circular frames using the Double Stitched Circles. I added mounting foam to the frames and attached them in opposite corners. I used the Floral Wishes die and cut it twice out of green card to use as the bases. Next, I cut the die again out of blue card and purple card. I added glue to all the flowers and then used several different Polished Silk Glitters on them. I used Canadian Blue, Light Purple, Periwinkle and Vintage Violet glitter colours. I nipped away the glittered flowers and added them on to the green base die cuts. I moved the flowers around a bit so they weren't exactly the same in the frames. I cut the banner with the You Are The Best Sentiment in it and nipped it away from the die and mounted it between the two frames. I paper pieced the saying in black so it showed up better. I added two small, glittered butterflies in the upper corner. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8 1/4" x 9 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue. What a lovely spring-like card for this stormy day here in the UK and it would be fairly easy to scale it down to make a smaller card.
