Warmest Wishes

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

Ok, so remember the Sneak Peek from last Friday with the new Thank You sentiment stamp? Well the 3 flower panels on this card are from the bottom section of that stamp.Such a versatile stamp.

The background is simply a piece of Coconut White Card run through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Joe's Garden Embossing Folder.

I stamped the Thank You stamp using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Black Detail Embossing Powder . I cut the bottom panel out from each one. I coloured in using Cosmic Shimmer Watercolour Paints. I used Violet Frost, Raspberry Blue and Golden Malachite from the Garden Tones Set. I matted them onto black card which was cut using a Spellbinders Pearl Effects Die.

I stamped the sentiment that comes with the Delicate Frame using Perfect Medium and embossed with Black Detail Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Diamond Effects. I wrapped a piece of Black Crochet Ribbon around the card.

 I assembled the card as shown adding some Black Pearls to the top corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Vintage Plum Pearlescent PVA.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
