Thinking Of You

Hi bloggers!  I cut the Layered Poppies for today's card.  I selected two shades of red and cut the flowers.  I glued them together then added black centres to each of them.  I cut the foliage out of two shades of green card.   I assembled all the leaves and added a few buds too.  I glued the assembled flowers to the foliage then added them to the bottom of a white background.  I cut the Jewelled Scalloped Border in white and glued it to the left side of the card.  I added small flatback pearls to the lattice as accents.  I cut the Noble Thinking Of You in black and glued it above the flowers.  The card was completed with white, black and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue. I love poppies so it goes without saying that I would love this card. They look so good with the dimension you have created with the dies and I love that you have added so much detail to the foliage too.

Hi Sue, this card is beautiful. I love the layout and know you won't mind if I pinch your idea for the new layered flower dies that I received yesterday. Really looking forward to having a play with them.

Lynne L -Good to have you back and hope you are fully recovered soon.

Those poppies "pop" against the white background. I love the jeweled border die which makes this a lovely card.
