Good morning sweet friends! I hope you’re headed into a wonderful weekend and that there are some family plans popped in there somewhere! I was just looking through my stash and discovered a card that I had not shared here. It has a sentiment that reminds me of how the weather feels when it just turns fall before persistent chill sets and the skies turn grey. This is a a quick card layered with one predominant die – JustRite Spellbinders Custom Die – Filigree Corners. I used it to create all the texture and dimension in the background adding a tag on for the sentiment. I have a core group of cards I use for personal occasions when I don’t something that fits in my stash; it dresses well for any occasion – you simply switch out the tag to fit the occasion.
Here’s your Step By Step Recap of die cuts and layers, from the bottom up: Start out with a Card Base (6″ x 6″) , foam tape, blue matting layer cut to 5-7/8″ x 5-7/8″, cream matting layer cut to 5-3/4″ x 5-3/4″, die cut layer made up of one large filigree corner in each corner of panel, foam tape, cream matting layer cut to 4-1/2″ x 4-1/2″, blue matting layer cut to 4-3/8″ x 4-3/8″, foam tape, die cut layer made up on one large filigree corner in each corner of panel. Add Ribbon, flowers and sentiment.

Love this card
very pretty layering of the dies, love the white against the dark blue and the splash of yellow you gave to it!
Another Masterpiece Becca…your attention to detail is second to none and your designs clearly show your love of your craft. You are an inspiration to many. Long may you carry on crafting.

Lovely and as you say quite generic as you can change the sentiment tag to fit any ocassion – love the filigree corners and what can be done with them – really versatile. Happy weekend to you Becca and all the Feekenettes (or whatever our collective noun is!).
Guess I’m #4. That’s about usual. Love this very applicable to any occasion card.

You are such an inspiring woman, what a find. I’ve been telling my crafting friends about you and your amazing site. Thank you for sharing your skills with us. Today I bought your corner die and I’m so looking forward to it arriving. It’s really wintery here in Scotland which means cold, wet, and windy. Perfect crafting weather! Carolyn
very striking love it x
Lovely as always! I will be making this card to add to my stash for when I need something elegant but quick! Thanks again for sharing with us, Becca. Hugs {{{ }}}
Every time I stop by, I am amazed by your latest creation. I love the way you staggered the colors of cardstock for your die cut layers. Brilliant! And the simplicity of the sentiment. ?
Hi Becca. Lovely card with a sweet sentiment. I have thses dies and they are so handy at making a beautiful card quite quickly. Enjoy the fresh air. Take care.
Good Morning Becca, from an extremely wet and blustery South Yorkshire, UK!
Today’s card is so beautiful – it screams elegance. I too just love dies like these as they very quickly become part of my staple “go to’s” and enable me to make relatively quick but nonetheless beautiful cards for any occasion. Thanks for sharing your inspiration with us and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

Hi Becca,
Love the colour choice and layout, you give me so much inspiration.
I get so much pleasure looking at your designs.

Hi Becca. I have recently found your blog and love all your creations – you are so talented. I live in the UK and have just ordered your filigree corner dies and custom Lacey tiers dies and can’t wait for them to arrive. Take care x
Becca, this is gorgeous!
Hi Becca,
Your cards are always a masterpiece. I have missed you this last week so, I just wanted to say hello and hope you are well.
Good Morning Becca from “across the pond”. I agree with Diana above, your cards are just beautiful and an absolute delight. I too have been missing your inspiration so this is just me saying “Hello…and hope you are well.” Do hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
Margaret A.
Absolutely GORGEOUS! I love the doubled corners on the top layer!
Wow!! Your creations are absolutely and breath-takingly gorgeous!! Thank you for your inspiration! So wonderful to hear about your faith that we share.
Wonderful exciting news, my eldest son has just announced his engagement less than 24 hours before I step onto the plane to fly out to Australia where they live. I wanted a card that was stunning but quick and had admired this card so much that fortunately I had ordered the dies needed to make it. I chose red and the results were just amazing. If you have the spare cash do buy this die,it will be so worthwhile.l can see so many different ways to use it. Thank you again Becca for sharing your enormous talent with us, kind regards, Carolyn
Stunning!
