This was my first opportunity to play with the “Awash in Beauty” Suite, it is just lovely. This suite has so many elements that make it unique. The lattice die is one of those elements, on this card I used the whole die. I could see cutting that die, trimming off the border, and floating a portion of it as a part of layering for a card. After I made this card I went back and added a few, two or three of the solid diamond pieces back to the background, and it changed the look. I think that would make this an even more elegant card.
The embossing folder added to the layers on this one. I am anxious to use that folder as a background on its own. I think that could also be very unique.
Here is a look at the insides of the cards. It was fun to use all of the elements, the gold lattice, flowers, and the embossing on the inside.
Measurements and Supplies for today’s True Beauty Just Because Card:
- I used a Basic White card base 8 ½” by 5 ½”, scored and folded at 4 ¼”, a quarter panel to do my embossing and a piece of scrap for the sentiment
- Next 2 pieces of Old Olive, 1 – 4” by 5 ¼’ for the inside of the card and a second piece 4 1/8” by 5 3/8” for the front of the card
- I used several pieces from the Awash in Beauty designer series paper
- Finally, a piece of Gold Foil for the lattice piece for the front of the card and an additional small piece for the inside of the card
