May all your wishes come true...

Hello everyone,

I'm whooshing by today with probably one of my own personal top 5 favourite cards!

...you know how sometimes you make a card and it just brings you joy?

This card is one of a set of three made for 
Making Cards magazine
and it was so loved by one very special friend that she now owns it!

Ingredients (from Dies To Die For)

Here's how I made this card...

1.Create an 11.5cm x 14.5cm card blank with the fold at the side.  Create a square of design paper the same size and fix it to the card blank.  Set aside

2. With the largest rectangle die from the Card Builders die set cut a piece of card suitable for Distress Ink Blending. Blend Scattered Straw Distress Oxide in the centre of the card blending it outwards, fading it out towards the edges of the card.  Flick water over the design and allow to dry.  Mix some Perfect Pearls powder with a little water and flick that over the design too.  Allow to dry. Fix the card design to the card blank set aside earlier.

3.Stamp the Curvy Girl image on to alcohol marker card with black ink and cut it out with the matching die.  Colour with alcohol markers as shown, adding Wink of Stella to the flowers.  Fix the coloured image to the card design, slightly left of centre as shown.

4.With Archival Ink stamp the sentiment to the right of the image as shown.
