Welcome
Thank you for visiting my blog, your visits are appreciated.
I started this several days ago, but time once more has moved more quickly than me, and I have spent the last 24 hours sneezing with the start of a cold...
I would like to welcome my newest follower - Donna Ellis of Creative Smiles. Donna makes some beautiful cards, and I would encourage you to go have a look.

I started this card with a piece of card I had cut the lady out of - the die is an unmarked one

I layered the white card over a deep maroon, and added some gold sequins around the silhouette

The sentiment was embossed in gold

And the edges sponged with Delicata Gold ink - I did managed to get this photo where the sparkle of the gold ink shows

There are two strips of washi tape layered on the card and the envelope.

A beautiful CAS feminine card Maxine. Do hope the cold shifts quickly, as I'm writing I'm realising it's Winter in your parts.

Such an elegant card, Maxine! I love her dress, and the gold accents are so nice! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday! We love seeing what you've made! :)
This is a very elegant silhouette and very clever use of the negative when hyou have been diecutting,
I don't think it would be you if there was not a sentiment embossed, and especially gold embossed. You do it so elegantly.
Sorry to hear you are coming down with a cold, look after yourself and stop it in its tracks.
Blessings,. Neet xx

Hello Maxine! Lovely to have found your web address. I have missed you. Love the card you have made. www.joyinthecraft.blogspot.com Hope you're feeling better soon. Hugs, Mary
That's a lovely card, Maxine. I hope you have recovered from the flu by now. Thanks for all your visits to my blog and the lovely comments. I crafted like crazy all of June & July as schools were shut for summer vacations. Now that I'm back to work, crafting has obviously slowed down. I will do my best to visit you more often now on.
