 
Greetings friends! I wanted to slip in today with a card for my stash that I wanted to share. The paper is so lovely and I cringe that I covered it up as much as I did but I had a series of dies I really wanted to use. I started out using Spellbinders Majestic Labels Twenty Five with Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Squares inside (Spellbinders Classic Squares SM) helped me make it a frame too). Tucked in the upper and lower corners of the square I filled in with Spellbinders Corner Flourish. I couldn’t resist the little birdie on the banner so I placed Spellbinders Bird Banner on the inside which is stamped with a Wordsworth sentiment. Lastly the flowers on my bow are created with Spellbinders Bitty Blossoms.
My card today users older dies except for one, so I’m happy to share the how-to cause you can make it now. By the way, the I added the gold birdie by just cutting the die an additional time and snipping it off from the banner. With Corner Flourish, I positioned each flourish underneath my frame and snipped off the excess – I love that inside look!
You Can Make This Card Too: Start out with a hinged card base sized 5-1/2″ x 7-1/2″. Here are the rest of the layers from the bottom up. Foam tape to lift gold mat layer cut to 5-1/4″ x 7-1/4″, design paper layer cut to 5-1/8″ x 7-1/8″, double layer of foam tape (I use Scotch 3M Foam tape that is 1/16″ thick) to lift frame cut using Majestic Labels Twenty Five, quadruple layer of foam tape to lift Fleur de Lis Square embellished with two Corner Flourishes. Quadruple layer of foam tape to lift Bird Banner placed in center of square. Frame embellished by loopy bow and embellished with flowers made from Spellbinders Bitty Blossoms (1 of each flower). Embellish with pearls.

I have been so busy at home, and sadly my craft room is in shambles. I hate that because I work best with a tidy area. I feel a spring cleaning coming on – heaven only knows what I’ll find. I hope all is well in your sweet world!
Hi there friends, I’m back for Day 5 of the JustRite Papercraft February releases and today my project centers around a very, very serious subject. As a matter of fact when I sat down to write this post I wasn’t quite sure how to approach it. I mean, when you see the card doesn’t one word sum it all up? I’d say it does. As a matter of fact, after a hard day, I’ve been known to use this word as an exclamation. Yes, it’s true :-) So no occasion necessary to send this card but once the recipient ‘gets it’, they’ll understand – just sayin’ The stamp set is Home Bakery Labels and I alternated chocolate and cream layers with JustRite Vintage Tag Dies and Spellbinders Ornate Squares.
Lol, the take ‘1’ by mouth is a hard instruction to follow. When it comes to chocolate, who can eat just one?
Here are the rest of the design team members that have designs to share – hope you can take a second to visit:

Lovely as always Becca!
Take Care
Love Marg
wow, this is stunning. Love the embossing and love the rose.
Beautiful card, love the simplicity of the embossing and the cameo.
Well, I think you did the right thing..altho I hope your hands didn’t have any glue on them when you sat on them :) Fortunately, I haven’t had any of your latter cards to give out…just birthdays!
EVERY CARD JUST SEEMS TO GET BETTER AND BETTER. LOVE THE ROSE.
ROLL ON SPRING XXXX
great card – would cheer anyone up I reckon – yes spring has spring here – we’ve had no rain for a week now! with a sunny dry and warm weekend forecast – so in the garden lots as it needs some TLC before the weather reverts to type no doubt! Love the tissue rose – so delicate. I make more bday cards than anything else. Happy weekend all.
the tissue paper is just perfect for a nice soft rose, the flower turned out beautiful, lovely embossing too!
Very very beautiful .thanks
GORGEOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SIGH! :)
Beautiful card.
Hi Becca.
Gourgious card. I love it.

I’m happy that you sat on your hands, as this is PERFECTION! Sometimes it is really hard not to keep adding just one more little thing…LOL!
Hugs,
Jan
Very beautiful as always. Love your work. Edna
Oh Becca, I’m glad you sat on your hands tee hee. Your card is just puuurrrfectly lovely just the way it is! Loves, Ruthie
This rose from tissue paper is so delicate! Lovely card! :)
Beautiful card, Becca, as always. I never thought of trying tissue paper with the flower die but will do so because it looks so soft and delicate. Also glad I have an order in for the new Spellbinders’s embossing folder.
How do you keep coming up with new creative ideas? Must be your God-given talent. I’m happy just to copy your work.
This is very pretty and I especially like the delicate rose.
In my mind, you are the “queen” of classic beautiful cards. This one, however, tops them all! The simplicity and elegance you show here is outstanding!
Yes, it would have been a shame, and this is so effective as it is. I’m a CAS person myself, and this one I could do! :)
I can hardly wait until this embossing folder arrives. I ordered it as one of the many new items from Spellbinders. So glad you used this so that we can see what a PRO did with it. Just love it! The cameo really hits the spot and of course pink is my favorite color. Thanks Becca and have a wonderful weekend.
Hugs
