I absolutely love this Pinkfresh Ornate Floral die. I die-cut it several times in these luscious shimmery papers (that I've been hoarding) and patiently inset the pieces back into the various outlines. Had to keep the desk tidy so as not to lose any of the pieces - my Pick-Me-Up tool came in handy for putting the pieces in place.
I was so pleased with the outcome - do you ever have a hard time mailing any of the cards you make? These just sparkle - can't even decide on a favourite. I popped up a very simple embossed sentiment on dimensionals.
Thanks for stopping by.

Using shimmery cs is always fun and adds so much pizzazz to a creation! These are so Beautiful, Heather, even the plain white one! Yes, I do have a hard time letting some of them go, so I just keep them until I feel it's time to say good-bye~

What a wonderful cover die and I like how you used it to create a set of cards. I'm sure the shimmer is wonderful. I don't usually have a hard time parting with my cards but some, that I've put a lot of effort into making, I want to go to a card maker who will look and realize the work that went into its creation! LOL
Wow! Very pretty. Great dies and papers! I like the different colors. Yes, they charged me extra today at the post office just because it was thick cardstock and unbendable.. She didn’t want the machine to tear it up so marked it ucnmachineable and charged an extra 30 cents for three cards!

Love this wonderful die cut- and it sure makes beautiful cards. The shimmer cardstock has to be a beautiful look IRL! I enjoy mailing out my cards, otherwise, they just pile up......

Perfect papers to complement that die, and you did a great job with the piecing, these are gorgeous! And yes, I do sometimes have a hard time sending out a card I made that I really like!
