Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Combining Die Sets ...

Hi Everybody,

Todays card is a combination of two die  sets from Sue Wilson and it shows that whichever sets you have they will all work together.

The layers are in pink and white and I have used the California Collection  and Seville from the Spanish Collection

The sentiment is stamped in pink and embossed in clear onto one of  the centre pieces from another of the Spanish Collection.

The satin ribbon is from my "Stash" and is wrapped around the layers with a diamante flower in the centre of the bow.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are a mixture of roses, sweetheart blossoms and tulips

The petals are all glamoured up with Glitter Magic  for a really pretty effect.

The full selection of dies are available from JGD Crafts and there are the matching stamps for some of the designs.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  17. Good morning Christina,
    What a beautiful card you have made with Sue's dies. They go together so nicely as if they were made for each other. I love your pink and white cards as they are so feminine and pretty. Having said that i love your pastel cards as a whole as they are so gentle and calming to look at.
    Love and crafty hugs

  20. Gorgeous card Christina. Sadly Ive missed several days of your cards that didnt come to me in email as they usually do. I tried resubscribing and it tells me I already am, but
    for a week I havent received any emails with your posts. Seems several blogs I subscribe to are not getting to people, just wanted to let you know. Fortunately, I clicked on an old post to get to your homepage and seen you had been making posts as you usually do so caught up on posts I missed, beautiful as always.
