Cards Three & Four Of Eight

Today my friends I have two more cards made with the set talked about in my previous post.  The first is a fussier card, which would be suitable, for special occasions.  It is a soft grey and uses a vellum panel, ribbon and pearls for a dreamy, romantic look.

The second is a more straightforward design done in sunshine yellow and translucent embossing paste for a more contemporary look (I'm not sure you can see the embossing paste in the photos, but I will try to show it in the close up).  I also used a contemporary sentiment for it.  Here is the first.




 
Here is the second.





I'll be back as soon as I can with the next two cards in this series.

Thank you so much for your visit today and especially if you have left a comment.  You are all appreciated more than you know!

  1. You're doing so well on these cards. I absolutely adore the yellow - not usually a colour I go to for backgrounds, but it looks so pretty with the white on top. Great stuff - keep it coming, it's so nice to see lots of inspiration using the same sets :) xx

  5. Beautiful cards Hazel. The first is indeed very dreamy and romantic. I love the paper you have used there for your die cut. The second is lovely and bright in that yellow. And yes we can see the embossing paste very well, looks nice.

  6. Both cards are just stunning Hazel! I love the first one-that sentiment is just beautiful, love the color combo as well. Would make such an elegant wedding card. The shimmery paper is just beautiful as well. Who is that sentiment by? I love the softness from the vellum too. The second card just makes me feel happy, like the sun is shinning down on me! Love the color combo as you can tell and I really love the look of the translucent embossing paste on the yellow, gives an extra somethin', somethin'! I think you are enabling me to get this die set! lol Hugs, Brenda

  8. Oh my, these are BOTH so elegant. Love the way you've used this fab die (which I have - if it's the SU one). A NBUS. Now you've inspired me. I could see the texture in the yellow closeup...it looked like tiny rain drops on the yellow background. Off to see your earlier post...well done. You're back with a Big Bang in Blogland! TFS & Hugs

  13. Two beautiful cards using your new cover plate. Love how your mind works!! Each one is so uniquely creative. Great job Hazel! I am following your cue ... again. Today I got a new stencil and made a card. I have two more cards to post using the same stencil. It's been fun trying out different ways to use it. Thanks for the inspiration (as always!). xx
