For You

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Spellbinders Platinum Machine with the Creative Expressions Wild Roses Embossing Folder.

I cut Sue Wilson's Classic Weaving Die out of Coconut White Card. I cut Sue's Striped Weaving Die out of Teal Card. I separated the Teal Die Cut into double strips the same width as the White Classic Die Cut strips. I wove the teal ones through the white ones as shown.

I made a frame out of Coconut White and Teal Card using Sue's Ornate Pierced Rectangles Noble Die Set and added it to my woven background using 3D Foam.

I stamped the sentiment from John Lockwood's Dogwood Flower Frame Stamp Set using Cobalt Archival. I cut it out using Sue's Pierced Flags Die Set and cut a mat out of Teal Card using a larger die in the same set.

I made a flower out of Coconut White Card using Sue's Camellia Complete Petals Die Set following Sue's method shown here and here. I inked the edges of the petals with Phill Martin's Decadent Teal Colour Cloud using a Smoothie. I applied some Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue to the edges of the petals and then dipped it into a pot of Cosmic Shimmer Iced Snow Glitter Jewels.

I cut a couple of leaves out of Teal Card using Sue's Laurel Leaves Die Set. I made a couple of Decorative Stick Pins using White Pearl Topped Stick Pins, White Pearl Beads, Bead Spacers, Deep Blue Faceted Beads and Glossy Accents.

I assembled the card as shown adding some 8mm White Pearls and piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.
