Hi Bloggers.
I'm adding new items onto ebay daily so click on the bar above is you'd care to have a look. I've also added some items for sale in the Beadwork section.
Here's today's card -
For the background, I used Milk Card. I stamped the Heartfelt Creations Script Keys Background twice using Dried Marigold Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Large Hepburn Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and then rubbed Enchanted Gold Gilding Wax all over the surface. Once dry, I buffed it up using a dry wetwipe and inked around the edges with Dried Marigold.
I stamped the image from the Heartfelt Creations Floral Keys & Locket Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 18 and inked through the die with Dried Marigold. I coloured in using Jade Teal Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Luscious Greens Mica Spray Set and Warm Peach Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Morning Sunlight Mica Spray Set. I already had a corresponding key cut out (I'd stamped the Burnished keys stamp and cut out with the Burnished Keys die). I coloured in parts of the key using a little Olympic Gold Mica Powder (from the Morning Sunlight Set) mixed with a little Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I layered this key on top of the image using 3d Foam. I cut 2 Spellbinders Majestic Labels 25 dies out of Soft Gold Card.
I made a flower out of a couple of papers from the Teresa Collins 8 x 8 Paper Pad using the Heartfelt Creations Sweet Juliet Die. I used another paper to cut out a couple of Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch flowers. I cut some leaves out of Soft Gold Card using the Sweet Juliet Die Set.
I assembled the card as shown adding some Cream Pearls in the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Golden Pearl around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
Morning Julia.

Morning Julia and Wattsonettes. A lovely card, thanks Julia. The stamp is SO versatile and cries out for all mediums to use on it, its really beautiful - as always. We can never go wrong with what SB/JR/CE bring us, it would be soooo good if I owned just a few of each of the products !
ReplyDeleteSue, thanks for the tip of slightly warming up the wax, slightly being the operative word I will have to do that next time. See, what would we do without OUR Julia and Sue giving us the help and tips we all need from time to time !
Have a good day my friends and keep warm.
Hugs to all.

ReplyDeleteHi Julia. Beautiful card, thank you for sharing it with us. Can't make up my mind if I like this flower or not - it is so unusual but it will probably grow on me the more I see it. My felt squares arrived today from your shows last week so can't wait to try some flowers with it, it feels such great quality. Take care xx
