Once again I would like to thank you all for your lovely comments on the cards I post, I really appreciate you taking the time to look and comment.
Today's card is another 8 x 8 which is my favourite size, although this can be adapted for smaller cards,and looks equally as nice.
It is also straightforward and an easy one to make.

For the Sentiment I cut :-
Cream Card 6.5 cm. sq
Black Card 6 cm. sq

The 19.5 sq. black card I left plain and attached this to the Base Card.
Next with the 19 cm.sq Cream Card and the Sentiment Border Stamps I stamped around the edge of the card using two different Sentiments and Black Soot Distress Ink.
Next lining up the 14.5 cm sq Black Card I attached this to the card using pads.
The next layer 14 cm sq Cream Card I Embossed and attached this flat to the card.
Sentiment
Using the smallest layer of Cream Card I stamped the Sentiment and then attached all three layers flat to the card.
Finally I added Pearl PVA to each corner of the Sentiment and Dazzlers to the corners of the main card.
Happy Crafting
