Just Because
Hello crafters! I started with a piece of white card and cut the Elegant Fanfare die out of Ocean card twice. I nipped the die apart and reassembled it into a larger square. I glued it to the white card. Next I cut the Elegant Stroll die in milk card. I cut it again out of teal card. I nipped away the dress, gloves and hat and glued it to the milk die cut. I coloured her shoes, skin and hair with markers. I cut the dog out of grey card and glued it to the die cut. I added her with mounting foam to the left side of the frame. I cut the Art Deco Just because sentiment out of both teal and black card. I shadowed the sentiment then glued it to the top of the frame. I cut a larger piece of white card and glittered the edge with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz, then added the other piece to it with mounting foam. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
Hi Sue. I do love the elegant dies from the first art deco release and while I appreciate all the wonderful cars from the latest release I haven't commented on them individually in case I win them all. As I don't make so many cards these days I probably wouldn't be able to use them so I have left them for someone else who would love to use them.
