Beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you have used the book page :))
It is a truly 'beautiful' card, did you cut the large word from foam to make it dimensional or is it the shading round it which gives that appearance? However you did it - it's lovely.
ReplyDeleteI cut some 3D foam squares to smaller squares and glued those behind the die-cut
DeleteGorgeous card! I love the ruffles around the rectangle! The die cut words are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow, love your card. The ruffles are so great!!
ReplyDeletewow, love the shabby chick look and the background subtle stamping really gives it that extra something. I may have to case this it is soooooo cute.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card! I especially love the ruffle around it!
ReplyDeleteLOVELOVELOVE the newsprint ruffle frame! What a fabulous idea! Every bit of this adds up to sheer perfection! TFS!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting way to use the printed page to make a ruffle for a card. Great reuse of paper.
ReplyDeleteLove the layering
ReplyDeletewith the papers
on your card!

Gorgeous card Yvonne!! The ruffle out of a book page(?) is terrific.
ReplyDeleteJust so pretty! Love the ruffle!
ReplyDeleteLove the ruffled edge and pretty details on your card! Love all the word dies in their elegant fonts!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you combined "distress" and "elegance" to create a wonderful card. I tried the "ruffled" look with washi tape and was not too thrilled with the results but your card offers me the perfect alternative for the same look, with less mess too! Love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Katina,
DeleteThe easiest way to ruffle is to put double sided tape onto the edge of the printed paper and then ruffle...this way you can glue it directly to the back of the card layer...
Hope this makes sense :-)
Lovely card! Nadia W
ReplyDeleteLove the schabby chic style of this card especially that ruffle! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove this card!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful--love the ruffled frame.
ReplyDeleteI love that glittery "Beautiful" and the ruffled text frame.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love the paper ruffle, and die!
ReplyDeleteYvonne, this is lovely! To me it is shabby chic with the aged ruffled newsprint and then the glittered, calligraphied sentiment. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOMG!! I DIDN'T REALIZE THERE WAS A GIVEAWAY, I WAS JUST GOING TO

QUIETFIRE, STAMPS, PAPER....I'M LOVING IT!!! AND ALL THE PROJECTS YOU

Your use of the printed page and the torn edges was a real coo! What a perfect way to offset the delicate die cut frame inside. Your composition is just perfect. TFS The words die cut and stamped are so cool and versatile. Love the blogs and inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! Beautiful card!!!
ReplyDeleteTHIS is beautiful! I love the frilly printed edge!!
ReplyDeleteNice card, love how you ruffled the printed paper around it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a "beautiful" (pardon the pun!) use of the word! I love the ruffled page - did you really stitch it or glue?? Simply wonderful and very appreciated by whoever it's given to! Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHi Dorothy, I put double sided tape onto the frontside of the printed paper and then ruffled...this way you can stick it to the back of the paper without need of extra tape/glue.
DeleteHope my explanation makes sense :-)
Gorgeous card love the die cut being so focal.
ReplyDeleteThat sparkly die cut word is gorgeous and I love the vintage design of your card.
ReplyDeleteThis card is beautiful, and I especially like the ruffled bookpage frame! The combination of distressing, stamping, layered die cuts and glittery sentiment make for a fabulous design.
ReplyDeleteThe pleated edging is a clever addition - I need to file away that idea.
ReplyDeleteYour card is so beautiful! I love the saying, the ruffled ribbon and the softness of the card.
ReplyDeleteI really like this card and the newsprint ruffle is spectacular! I am noting that technique in my book of ideas!

ReplyDeleteWhat a classic card! Using paper to make the ruffle - who a great idea. I'm going to use that idea, for sure. This card is definitely worth framing! Thank you for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your card! I'm going to be trying to do that ruffled paper now!

ReplyDeleteThese words are so versatile and love the dies. You created a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteInquiring minds want to know.. how did you ruffle the text paper? you don't really notice it at first, but it really enhances the sentiment :)
