I Smile When I Think Of You

 Hello there my crafty friends!  I selected a piece of Iris card for the background of today's card.  Using the Coronet Lace Border set, I cut two white borders and two black borders.  I shadowed the white borders with the black borders and then glued them to the top and bottom edges of the card.  Next I cut the Gloria die in white and nipped it in half.  I cut the Cora die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card. I used the white copy to colour the flowers in different colours.  I added the black die cut on top of it.  I cut the other die from the set in white and seated the Cora on top of it.  I gued the two pieces of the Gloria die to the top and bottom edges of the Cora die.  I added it to the centre of the card with mounting foam.  I cut the I Smile When I Think Of You sentiment in black and glue it to a white shadow backing piece.  I seated it across the centre of the Cora die with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  9 1/4"  in size.
