- 6" x 6" square white card blank
- silky matt red mirri card
- white backing card embossed with Crafts-Too 'Lattice' embossing folder
- Memory Box 'Glowing Candles' die, cut once in white and then again in sparkly silver sticky backed paper. The silver pieces were then painstakingly peeled apart to fill in the gaps in the white die - I'll never learn about saving time!
- the oval was cut with a Nestie from the Floral Ovals die set. This set is so popular right now, I keep seeing it pop all over Blogland, and rightly so as it's lovely
- the sentiment is Craftwork cards, popped onto a silver sparkly oval and then onto a scalloped matt red mirri oval - both punched with my usual SU punches
- some red and silver Josy Rose nail heads to finish off
The 'white on white' will happen soon I promise :) If only 'cos this place seems to be overflowing with white snippets - mind you, I reckon WOW will be murder to photograph, this one was bad enough.
Another one for the Christmas card box - I peeked at them yesterday and realised that a lot of recent ones still need inserts though. So that's gonna be one mind-numbingly exciting session here ASAP.

ReplyDeletelove it

Well you nearly managed it didn't you. I can't get to grips with white on white either. But you have made a lovely card, and hopefully enjoyed doing it, and that's what matters! Kate x
ReplyDeleteTee hee Di.. .. I don't think I have ever done a "totally" white on white project either. I always sneak another colour in there too LOL!!
ReplyDeleteYour card is lovely and deserved extra points for all the patience involved in adding the silver paper pieces .. .. I thought it was glitter to begin with!
Have a good day.
Love Jules xx
Beautiful! The touch of red really enhances the white and silver. Must put that die on my wish list too!
ReplyDeleteStunning Di, I love the added silver - it's perfect.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tip about the fork.

Beautiful card, Di. I like the touch of red and silver with the white - very elegant. Have fun with the inserts :) Hugs, Elizabeth xx
ReplyDeleteThis is striking Di - I love the touch of red to bring the card to life. Great choice of dies and embossing board. I know what you mean about the inserts - last time I was caught out (because I hadn't made the inserts) I promised myself I would finish a card off in total every time I made one - three months' later have I any totally finished cards ...... have I heck!
ReplyDeleteHugs to you Sue Pxxx
Love that die and the touch of red you have used Di, and the embossing is gorgeous. Know what you mean about inserts I have a box full with no insides LOL huggles Sue xxx
ReplyDeleteJust had a peek at some of your Christmas card posts - so pretty. I hope I have a brainwave soon about my own C cards. x Jo
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, Di! I usually have to add a bit of color. I don't know why. I love all white or cream cards! I love the bit of red on this! Pretty candles too!
ReplyDeleteHi Di,
ReplyDeletesuch a very pretty card. Love those candles.
i have just entered my second card of the week.
Lots of love. Jenny L.
Ooooooo Miss this is sumfinck else indeedy. Love the whole concept of the card. I bought this candle die and haven't used it yet. I must stop playing with cardboard and get down to some serious stuff.
ReplyDeleteHugs Mrs A.
Ah,the not-quite-whitey-whitey card looks fabulous Di LOL!
ReplyDeleteLove the addition of the silver and red :)
Hugs,Nessa xxx
Beautiful card, looks great with the silver glitter, next time grit your teeth or take them out, and you will get there, lol.
ReplyDeleteIt will be just like you were with LIM, and once you started you were hooked.

How I love this candle die. It's so perfect paired with this floral oval & your silver shine was so beautiful with this. I know you were going for white on white, but truly, this is just stunning. So I loved it just as it turned out. Wonderful effect. TFS & thanks for the blog tip. Gotta check the 'gray heads' too...maybe that is the diff in my list & the spreadsheet cause I don't have those names. Hugs
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Di. I'm too afraid to attempt a WOW card - the thought just makes me jittery. Love the sparkly silver bits - worth the work xx
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous Di and I love the sparkly candles x
ReplyDeletelovely, even if it went 'off-plan' with the addition of a bit of colour!
ReplyDeleteHugs
Debs x
Bootiful Miss. Love the hints of colour.
ReplyDeleteI am always afraid of doing a WOW card that I will get ink on it somewhere!
Hugs

It's stunningly gorgeous, Di, and so very, very close to w-o-w! You know you can do it!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteCandle die is another on the wish list... not bad for a white on white card Di.. LOL can you do some inserts for me too???? Think I may resort to a 'Seasons Greetings' stamped directly on the inside....
