Hello lovelies and hope you are all OK today.

I'm sharing a card I made a while back when I was having a play with some Tonic Studios Glacier Pastes. I made a batch of backgrounds and then turned them into something that resembled a card lol.

And this was one of them.

Now I know I bang on a bit sometimes about this doesn't take long, and this one is quick etc etc. and you must think I'm such a lazy so and so. I'm really not but I do love cards and projects which come together quickly but I still want them to look good as well. And sometimes we are just 'busy' I guess.

So anyway, this is a super quick and easy card to do and just by changing the background you could use this for anybody, male or female.

You wouldn't even have to put a glacier paste background behind, it - just some plain card would look just as good.

This is the set I used (it's linked below).

So I cut the 'love' bit straight into a piece of white card and the 'with' from a scrap of background I had left over. Then just stuck it all together and added a bit of Nuvo-dropage.

10 minutes max!!

I tried to capture the sheen from the background.

I don't think I'll be giving David Bailey any sleepless nights though hahaaa.

But it is pretty gorgeous :)

Link to my YouTube channel for how I made the background here and for other ideas with the pastes, there's a showcase of finished cards here.

So there we are all done.

I hope you like it and I've linked below to stuff I used. These are affiliate links which mean that it won't cost you any more if you buy, but if you do, I will get a small commission (thank you xx).

Take care and please stay safe and well and I'll see you soon xx

Hello crafty friends and hope you all had a lovely weekend.

Wasn't the weather a treat!!!

Blimey, it was torrential on occasions here.

I'm sharing a card with you today that I made using the Tonic Studios Foliage and Florals Patterned Panels Die.

So all I did was cut this out in white card and then laid it over the top of a background I made using some Nuvo pastes and mousses.

I love this technique - you never know what you're going to get!! But it's always pretty.

I cut the flower out and layered it up.

For some of the layers, I cut them out and then ran them through the machine with the panel die but I used the embossing plates rather than the cutting plates. I like the effect it gave.

This technique would work with any if your flower dies.

And if you don't have this one, you can use any you do have and it will still look nice.
