Just Because
Hello crafters! I embossed a piece of black card with the Tidal Sands embossing folder. Next I cut a white frame using the Double Stitched Rectangles. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame and I added a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet added to it, then strips of Silver Sparkle card added to it. I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed sticky areas. I cut Buddy in black and added the floppy ears and a small red flower and a white envelope with a red heart. I cut several daisies from the Delicate Daisies set in red. I assembled them and added them in opposite corners of the frame. I cut the Magnolia Corner in white and nipped it apart to use as accents with the flowers. I cut the Just Because sentiment in black and glued it inside the frame. The card was completed with red, white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x
Good morning Sue, this sample is adorable and would be a perfect Valentine’s Day card.
