Heartfelt Thanks

Hi Bloggers.

Here's todays card -

For the background, I ran a piece of Periwinkle Card through the Grand Calibur with the Creative Exprssions Checkerboard PinPoint Embossing Folder. I popped a litle Gold Cosmic Shimmer Shimmer Paint onto my Craft Sheet. I picked it up with a piece of Cut n Dry Foam and rubbed it over the embossed surface. I wrapped a piece of Blue Satin Edged Organza around the centre.

I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Rose Bouquet Vintage Labels 7 Clear Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Gold Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Filigree Layers Die Set. I cut the Vintage Filigree Layers Die again out of Vintage Gold Card.

I stamped the Justrite Sculpted Leaves Background using Perfect Medium and embossed with Gold Detail Powder. I matted it onto Vintage Gold Card.

I cut 2 more Vintage Filigree Layer dies out out Vintage Gold Card. I cut each one in half and attached each half to each corner of the Sculpted Leaves Background using Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue.

I tied a bow using Blue Satin Edged Organza. I pressed a Clear Sparkler into Perfect Medium and added Gold Detail Powder. I tapped off the excess and heat set.

I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Olympic Gold around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

    I remember you did this card as one of your demos. I wouldn't have thought to put these two colours together but strangely they do work.
    Lovely!!
