A Friend is Like a Rainbow

Hi Bloggers.

I'm demoing at Strikes Garden Centre in Northwich, Cheshire today 10 till 4. Please stop by if you're in the area.

I have a quickie, clean and simple card today - way out of my comfort zone!

I've used the inner die only from the Spellbinders Lonely Hearts Dies Set, cut into Coconut White Card and backed onto Black Card.

The sentiment is from John Lockwood's Daisy Chain Elements Stamp Set stamped in Jet Black Archival.

I've just added a few 5mm Pearls and that's it!

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

    Hi Julia, I get that it's an unusual card for you, however it's a very lovely card as it is, for me, it needs one of the new corner pearls. Enjoy your day X Ros

    Morning Julia, This die is stunning, I love this card, I really never do CAS cards, but this die looks so striking how you have used it and in the monochrome, it is stunning.
    Have a safe journey to Northwich, so sad I can't be there.
    Lots of love from Patricia xx

    Hi Julia
    A lovely clean and simple card, but so effective.
    Love the monochrome. Think I will try one although haven't got this particular striplet.
    Have a great time in Cheshire and safe journey too.

    I was wondering about a card for my brother that was not too girly. I think this idea may have solved the problem. Thanks Julia.
