Friday Freebie 008

Hi Everybody,

This is a pretty little lemon card and it is a 6 inch square.

It has gold embossing and the background is created with a mask and some Sparkle Paste to give a raised texture.

The bow is multiple and wrapped around the layers and the centre is gold and cream.

The inside is lined and embossed and the envelope is embossed in the same pattern.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and sparkled with Glitter Magic

It is a pretty card and it can be yours for the swap of a comment.



Leave yours at the bottom of the post and later this evening a name will be picked at random.

I will let you know who has won the card in tomorrows blog post

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  5. Hi Christina,
    What a beautiful card. I love its boldness, yet delicate at the same time. Do you think you could do a tutorial on how you did the background? I've never used Sparkle Paste, but it sure makes your card look good. Keeping my fingers crossed.
