You Colour My World

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I stamped the corner stamp from the Posy Florals 3 Stamp Set in each corner using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Tropic Pearl Lustre. I then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Extra Flint Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Aged Mahogany using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the large frame from the same stamp set, again using Aged Mahogany and embossed with Tropic Pearl Lustre. I cut it out with scissors and inked around the edges with Aged Mahogany. I stamped the heart image from the same stamp set using Aged Mahogany and embossed with Tropic Pearl Lustre. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 28 and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, using Aged Mahogany and embossed with Tropic Pearl Lustre. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 25 and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany.

I tied a bow using Cream Satin Edged Organza. I pressed a  Fancy Pearl Embellishment into the Aged Mahogany Ink Pad, sprinkled with Tropic Pearl Lustre, tapped off the excess and heat set. I added a couple of Crystal Decorative Stick Pins.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in White around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

    Super love the floral frame and the tropical lustre gives a super sheen to the card and makes the colour mottled and subtle.
