This card was made in honor of Queen Susie QFTD183... whom I have become friends with through Splitcoast. I was inspired by the stacked dies backed with DP. Her card is vertical and mine is horizontal. We both added flowers but I chose not to add a bow. Her sentiment is on a sponged panel and mine is on an added die cut. Both cards are oversized.
Here is her AMAZING card: Happy Mother's Day by PaperPunchScissors at Splitcoaststampers
This is also for my good friend of 25 years Jo Jo. This year is “one of those decade” birthdays and I wanted it to be very special! Inside it says “Good Friends Remember Your Birthday, But Forget Your Age”.
Outer die is Spellbinder Timeless Rectangle
Middle 2 dies are Spellbinder A2 Filigree Delight that I cut at our die club and I do not own them.
The leaves are Cheery Lynn Design
The Design Paper is something I downloaded from the internet and printed (my first time doing this!).
The roses are from a Quilling kit (Quilling Creations from Hobby Lobby a long time ago) and I hand rolled them.
SU Old Olive cardstock and ink
half pearls
Star Dust Stickles (their baaaaack!)
Unknown sentiment
LOTS of dimensional under every die
This card is 6.50x4.50 I had to make a card base by cutting a piece 6.50 and one 6.75. I scored the extra quarter inch and glued it to the 6.50 card to make the base.
EDIT! I just saw that Susie is also the new Featured Stamper FS347 and since I just made this today I am adding it to this gallery as well!
Thank you for taking the time to look!
