Just For You

 Hello bloggers!  I have another rather clean and simple card to share with you today.  I cut the Herringbone Background twice out of white card.  I offset the two die cuts so that they were crisscrossing each other.  I added a backing piece cut from Arctic Blue card.  Next I cut the Layered Hydrangea out of Arctic Blue and Periwinkle Blue.  I used Picked Raspberry distress ink to ink the edges of the flowers.  I cut the leaves and stems out of two shades of green card and assembled them and added the flowers.  I arranged them on the left side of the card.  I cut the Just For You sentiment out of Periwinkle blue card and added it to a white shadow backing piece, then attached it with mounting foam next to the flowers.  I added several clear water crystals as accents to the background.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8"  in size.

All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. What a lovely background today. It almost looks like a trellis so it would suit any flowers that would like to climb up it. Lovely card.
