Happy Wednesday!!

It’s been long that I have been not much active in sharing my work. There were lots going on at my end the past few months. I was mentally and emotionally occupied with my family responsibilities as a single parent. Both my kids got engaged in the same month and then my dog Google expired after struggling many health issues for a month….and the preparations for my daughter’s marriage. Coming back to my regular crafting routine took me a lot of time. We still have a wedding planned of my son. I am trying my level best to come back to my crafty routine.

Anyways….enough with my personal talks!! I have this beautiful card to share as a Wednesday inspiration using Heartfelt Creations supplies.

Instructions: The ready card base from smooth white cardstock measures, 5 1/2″ by 8 1/2″. Choose the designer paper from Floral Shoppe Paper Collection and cut to size measuring 4 3/4″ by 7 3/4″ and glue it on the white cardstock creating a sleek border of 1/16″ on all the sides.

Finally, layer the panel on the ready card base.

Cut one white die and one gold cut from Lattice Swirl Gateway Die. Glue the gold die cut behind the white one little off-center to create the shadow and layer it on the ready card panel. Cut an extra white sentiment banner from the same die in white and ink it using Rusty Hinge Distress Ink. Add a gold matting to highlight the sentiment and layer it as shown.
