Hi there friends, it has been a whirlwind of a week. Thank you so much for supporting us as we introduced my latest collection Venise Lace. Here is a card originally made to go with the creation but as the sun (finally after a week of rain) came up on Tuesday morning, I barely had time to photograph the box and note cards I designed. It was waiting for the sentiment layer and it seems that today isn’t going to be visited by rain. My entire ensemble was made with one die set – Spellbinders S4-793 Venise Lace – Gossamer Knot Ensemble. I think I mentioned that even though the note card set is smaller – the inlaid design can be repeated indefinitely. It just so happens in this case that two repeats makes a great background for a 5 x 7 card! The sentiment layer is made by simply embossing and not cutting. The ensemble I created was for friends that always ask me for cards they can always have on hand. As it goes, I thought this card would be appropriate in the giving of the card set gift. Its another Quietfire Design sentiment – In a Perfect World
