Thinking of You
Hello bloggers! To begin, I embossed piece of white card with the Padded Quilt embossing folder. Next I cut the Jayne die out of lilac card and the Harper die out of white card. I cut the lilac die cut card in half and then glued the white Harper die cut to it, pushing the cut die outward from behind. I cut the Harper die again but just the inner lattice part with the middle part added to it, leaving the outer part of the die this time. I cut the middle part a second time out of lilac card and glued it on top. Next I cut the Daisy Cluster out of two pieces of white card. I coloured one of the daisies with a lilac marker, then added the white die cut on top. I hand cut a single daisy out of it and added it to the bottom of the die cut once assembled. I used the Thinking of You sentiment cut out of both lilac and black card. I shadowed it then glued it to the centre lattice part of the die cut. The card was completed with white and lilac card mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue What a beautiful card I love the colours and the dies you've used. I enjoyed your Christmas launch Sue lots of lovely dies I didn't enter the competition because I only do cards for family and friends and felt it better that someone who would have more use of the dies had a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteNice card
