Just a Note Card - Craft Dies by Sue Wilson

Hello Friends,
I have a fun card to share with you created with Sue Wilson's new collection of dies. These dies are just beautiful and I love to design cards with them.

Instructions:

1. I started by creating the card base from white cardstock using the largest die from Noble Dies - Ornate Pierced Design. 

2. I die cut and embossed all the layers using the same die set and designer cardstock. I colored the embossed area and edges with distress ink mini pads. The layers were adhered to card base using foam squares.

3. For the flowers and fern I used  Finishing Touches - Classic Foldover Flowers, Finishing Touches - Maidenhair Fern, and Finishing Touches - Dandelion Clocks.  I used designer cardstock to die cut the flowers and fern and then colored them with distress inks. 

To watch a video with Sue on how to create these pretty flowers go HERE.

4. The sentiment "Just a Note" was die cut with Expressions Dies - Just a Note and adhered to card with glue. 

Supplies:

Creative Expressions - Craft Dies by Sue Wilson: Noble Dies - Ornate Pierced Design, Finishing Touches - Classic Foldover Flowers, Finishing Touches - Maidenhair Fern, Finishing Touches - Dandelion Clocks, Expressions Dies - Just a Note.
