A friend of mine, Lucie has requested a couple of custom creations and here is what I came up with.... First, she needed a birthday card for her sister. This birthday is a BIG one so she and her sister are heading to Italy next year to celebrate. She found a card she liked in the "Originals" idea book and I took it from there. I used a downloaded picture of Italy and gold embossed one of the frames from the exclusive convention stamp set around it. This took a lot of masking as I didn't have a frame large enough to fit around the picture. I used chocolate ink to stamp flourishes around two corners of the card front and then used my craft blade to create a cut out frame to see the map that was inside. I really liked the look. Next I created two small tags to include the sentiment and attached them with gold embroidry floss.
Birthday for a friend who loves Cows!

Excellent work, Terrie - and no, I didn't faint! I was too eager to see what you've been up to! LOL You certainly didn't disappoint - the frame and card with the map are both SO pretty - my goodness! I love how the curves frame the opening . . . and the gold just looks so elegant!
The wedding card is wonderful - I think wedding cards are harder than sympathy cards, (and not to be confused either!).
Nice work, dear friend!
