Wish Big

Hi bloggers!  Here's another really quick and easy card.  I started with a piece of
Silver Sparkle Alcohol ink card from Ranger.  I used a bunch of alcohol inks all over it randomly.  Using the Double Stitched Rectangles, I added a multi-layered frame over it with a wider white base and a thin black frame on top.  I added it with mounting foam over the bright coloured background.  I cut the Wish Big sentiment in black and added it to a white shadow backing die cut, then added it to the centre of the frame.  I cut two heart balloons from the Birthday Balloons die set.   I added two black strings from the Dotty Balloon die set.  I added the balloons with mounting foam in the corner of the frame.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now Sue x

WOW what an amazing colourful happy piece of inspiration . I've never seen the silver sparkle card other than here, I can only imagine its beauty.
Those big bold sentiments are delish as is the whole design.

Hi Sue, Wow 'All things bright and beautiful' comes to mind on seeing today's card and like Pauline I can remember a dress in a similar colourway/pattern - the '70's have a lot to answer for :-).
