Here I used the same sentiment file as on my last card, which a made on my Silhouette. This time I made it much larger and in red glitter card. I cut a couple of layers in plain card which I stacked to add dimension. For a while I thought that the glitter card was too thick or tough or whatever to cut with my Portrait, but I discovered that the small component around the blade had become slightly unscrewed so that not enough of the blade was showing, despite it being on a high setting. Once I discovered and remedied this situation it cut beautifully!
The background was cut with a Memory Box die gently twinkled with Glamour Dust and the backdrop embossed with Sheena Douglass Snow embossing folder.

My knee seems to be progressing well, it is still sore but my walking is much better now!
This is such a pretty card. I love how the intensity of the design is concentrated in that circle. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology.
