Autumn here with you today to share a shabby chic floral get well card using a die from our lovely new sentiment collection. The Swirly Get Well die makes a striking focal point. I embossed it with shabby pink, white and gold Frantage embossing powder. It was too pale for me, so I went back and sponged permanent brown ink over it. I cut an oval from chipboard and applied crackle paste to it. Then I cut the Afternoon Chat die to layer beneath my crackle panel to create a frame.
Because the dies don't line up perfectly, I used several layers of foam tape to really bump the crackle panel up, which disguised the misalignment. I layered some paper flowers and a seam binding bow for embellishment and mounted layers of Prima paper with some vintage trim to form my base. I hope this cheery floral card will brighten a sick loved one's day.
Autumn, your card is just stunning! I love the layering and the crackle is superb... x
