Just For You

 Hello crafters!  I selected a piece of pixied card from my stash to use as the background for today's card.  It was created by using Aqua Lagoon and Teal Wash Pixie Powders.  I matted the pixied piece with a piece of black card and added it to a piece of white card that I had used the smaller die from the Heart Scalloped Border die on the sides of the card.  Using the Clipped Corner Rectangles, I cut a white frame and added it to the card with mounting foam.  I cut the Layered Magnolias in white and inked the centres with Mustard Seed distress ink.  I assembled the flowers nd added them to the stems cut in brown and leaves in green.  I arranged the flowers around the edges of the frame.  I cut the Just For You sentiment in black and glued it to the inside of the frame.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  9 1/2"  in size.

Just a quick note, the April die release is starting here tomorrow morning at 6am.  Hope to see you back here then!  All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue, This is one of my favourite style of card that you make. Although on the face of it, it is quite simple, I think it looks so classy and really draws your attention to the beauty of the flowers. Looking forward to the launch tomorrow.

I purchased some pixie powders some time ago but have yet to seriously play with them. I won't forget your tip of using a gloss type card and cling film. WakeyL
