Thanks

Hi Bloggers.

Thanks for all your emails and comments yesterday. A day of catching up today and packing for my demo at Domino Crafts in Wolverhampton tomorrow.

Here's today's card featuring the Justrite Applique Flowers and Vintage Sentiment Tags Clear Stamp Set.

You can see the Justrite Blog entry including the SVG file details here.

The background is simply a piece of Milk Card run through the Grand Calibur with my current favourite Swiss Dots Embossing Folder from Couture Creations. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Latte Adirondack Dye Ink Pad using Cut n Dry Foam.

I cut the largest die from the Spellbinders A2 Devine Eleoquence Die Set and inked through the die with Latte Ink. I glued it on top of a piece of card from my stash cut with Spellbinders Matting Basics A.

I stamped the Tulips from the Justrite Applique Flowers and Vintage Sentiment Tags Clear Stamp Set onto 2 different papers from the Creative Expressions Teresa Collins 8 x 8 Paper Pad using Coffee Archival. I cut sections out and paper pieced them as shown. I stamped the flower stem onto Milk Card, again using Coffee Archival and cut it out. I cut it into 3 pieces.

I stamped the sentiment and the tag from the same stamp set, again using Coffee Archival but this time I also embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Sentiment Tag Dies and inked through the die with Latte Ink.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Cream Pearls to the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Vanilla PVA around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

    Another stunning card, I watched all your programmes last night one after the other, and at the end my husband said " only one thing missing" I asked what was that, and he said that Carol Clarke's name hasn't been read out on any of these programmes - we both had a good laugh
    Hugs

  27. This card is great and looked brilliant on the telly yesterday - Dave's cutting out was funny - wanting the manly Tim Holtz scissors made me smile. I did send in some emails, though none were read out and none were picked out of the cup - never mind, always next time.

  30. Hi Julia,
    I was looking forward to your demo of this card as that show was the only one I was able to watch Live! Just as you began the demo the phone rang! End of lesson for me. So pleased to see it today. It is lovely and something I haven't done for ages. I get in a rut! Still got 3 shows to watch!
    You've had a really busy time. Take care - safe travel tomorrow and try to enjoy some of the good weather.
    June trust all goes well .
    Love Myra
