Friends Are The Best Gift

 Hello bloggers!  I cut the Stained Glass Rectangles out of white card and backed it with Soft Lavender card.  Using the Dynamic Daisies and the Floral Medley die sets, I cut multiples flowers out of Soft Lavender, Amethyst and Sherbet card.  I cut the stems and leaves out of Forest green card and assembled the flowers and arranged them on the background.  I find it easiest to use glue dots to get the arrangement how I want it to look, then glue them into place.  I cut a butterfly from the Bountiful Butterflies die set by cutting a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I used the white card to colour the image, then added the black card on top.  I added the flower coming off the side of the pink flower.  I cut The Friends Are The Best Gift sentiment in black then glued it to a white shadow backing piece.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8"  x  9 1/4"  in size.  


All for now, Sue x
