Friday Die Day

Hello friends

I'm back with Friday Die Day!
The blog posts are a little erratic at the moment due to my eye 
surgery but I should be back on track soon.

I'm featuring a few dies and a Glimmer Plate this week.


I've used my Glimmer machine, gold foil and ivory card
to create this design.
Once foiled trimmed to a rectangle.


An ivory card base and matted with a gold mirror card mat
and Anna Griffin card - this is a new collection of single sided
AG card to the website. 
I use my trusty E-Z Runner Grand, this really speeds things up!


I've cut two, one from gold mirror card and one from ivory.
Affix the gold behind the ivory offset slightly for a drop shadow.


I then matted the foil design onto a rectangle of gold mirror card,
wrapped around a piece of peach ribbon and affixed to the die cut.


Placed onto my prepared card base.


Next - the flowers, cannot have a card without a flower!
This is Cinch and Go V.

I'm really quite in love with these daisy design flowers.
Cut from watercolour card and coloured with distress ink.


A little gold brad to the middle.
The leaves that come in this set are very sweet too.


The finished card.
