Sunday Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

I'm back home now. I'll be catching up with as many of my website orders that I can today and spending the next couple of days getting my demos together for the One Day Special that I'm launching on Tuesday.

I thought that you might like to see an sneak peek from the One Day Special?

The background has been created using the smallest die in Sue's Stitched Square Peg Board Die Set. It's easy to extend the design by slotting the end row or 2 back into place and cutting again. I've cut it out of Coconut White Card, matted onto Primrose Card and another piece of Coconut White.

I cut dies #3 and #4 from Sue's Jennifer Die Set out of Primrose Card and just die #4 out of Coconut White Card. I glued the 2 die cuts together and added them to my background using CE Mounting Cushion.

I built up a cake on a stand out of Coconut White, Primrose and Gold Mirror Card using Sue's Make a Cake Die Set. I coloured the flames on the candles using Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade Distress Markers.

I cut Sue's Alphabet Grid out of Primrose Card twice and Coconut White Card twice ( I needed two 'O's). I added my sentiment using CE Mounting Cushion under each tile.

I completed my card by adding a 5mm White Pearl to each corner.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

    Good Morning Julia Beautiful Card this morning Julia. I would love to receive such a lovely card like this on my birthday.
    Julia I have to tell you. I have commented before about the lack of getting the pixie powder backgrounds right. Well yesterday I found another use for them. I wanted some yellow roses and could not find any in my stash. So I got a piece of very thin copy paper and sprinkled straw yellow pp over it. I Spritz it with water then gently spread it all over my paper with a sheet kitchen roll I dried it with my heat gun and cut out one of my bitty blossom flowers...and whey hey! ! !I had a beautifully yellow rose. By doing this I could make it as pale or as deep in colour that I wanted. I was quite pleased with myself. At least I can use them for something. But I must keep trying with the backgrounds. I WILL conquer it. Kind regards Ann Toppcards

    Hi Julia,
    Great birthday card that would please anyone (like Carmen!).
    I love the way the letters are off kilter. I do really like that alphabet die set and also the peg board which makes great, varied backgrounds.
    I always enjoy your demos so will try to catch the early show as we will be clearing the den (and unhooking my computer) for new carpeting. I am excited about the carpet but dread the moving around.
    Enjoy your day off,
