Thank You
Hello bloggers! I selected one of my favourite Pixie Sparkled background to use for today's card. The background was created by using Teal Marine Pixie Sparkles on a piece of white card. I cut the background into six equal sections and added mounting foam to the back and attached them to a piece of white card. I used the Jewelled Scalloped Border and cut the die out of white card twice. I nipped away the lattice part of the die, leaving the jewelled ends. I attached them to the top and bottom of the background edges. I cut the Thank You Block Sentiment in white and seated it on the larger white backing in the set. I cut just the Thank you portion of the die out of a leftover piece of the pixied card and glued it on top of the Thank You Block sentiment. I used the Pinwheel Flowers and made three flowers with glittered petals. I seated them around the sentiment and added white leaves. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday everyone x
This is a wonderful start to the week. It is a dark and grey here but this is bringing a beautiful bright smile to the day. Obviously the teal marine Pixied background has my name all over it. A wonderful blast from the past with the Pinwheel flowers accompanied by that stunning new border. This is definitely a ‘signature’ Sue kind of a card and does not disappoint at all. Thank you x
Take care one and all x
Sending you all positive thoughts x
