Here's today's card -
I made a frame out of Coconut White Card using dies #2 and #4 from the Stitched Square Peg Board Die Set. I added it to my background using Woodware Foam Tape. I matted onto a couple of pieces of Coconut White Card.
I added a piece of CE Double Sided Adhesive to a piece of Coconut White Card. I peeled away the other backing sheet and then added some Autumn Leaves Gilding Flakes. I cut the sentiment from the Life is a Garden Die Set out of it. I popped it onto a banner cut using the Stitched Flags Die Set and tucked it into the side of my frame.
I cut a pair of Oak Leaf Swag Dies out of Coconut White Card. I cut 3 sizes of flowers from the Sunflower Bouquet Die Set out of more of my Gilded Card. I popped some more Double Sided Adhesive onto a piece of Cinnamon Card and cut out 3 flower centres. I removed the backing and added Copper Micro Beads. I added the centres to my flowers and popped them on my card as shown.
The winner of the card from Freebie Friday on 1st December is ............................
