Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
A simple one as long as you're patient!
For the background, I spread some Warm Gold Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Texture Paste through the Festive Frame Mask and set aside to dry.
I stamped the Merry Christmas Stamp using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Gold Sparkle Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Adorning Squares. I popped a little Gold Cosmic Shimmer Shimmer Paint onto my Craft Sheet. I picked it up using Cut n Dry Foam and edged the die cut with it. I cut a mat out of Vintage Gold Card using Spellbinders Grand Squares.
I tied a bow using 2 lengths of Champagne Silky Crush Ribbon and added a Fancy Pearl Embellishment.
Once dry, I edged the background with Gold Cosmic Shimmer Shimmer Paint.
I assembled the card as shown adding dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Olympic Gold around the edges.
Don't forget that the Blog Hop is still running - start point is here.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.

Lovely card with all that texture. But guess what happened when I tried to buy the Spellbinders grand squares to add to my collection ( I'm a new crafter), yep it has been discontinued! I called Spellbinders, and it would seem lots of people are asking why and what if anything is taking its place. It seems a shame that such a basic shape should be removed before a replacement is put in place?
ReplyDeleteHi Fiona, I had the same problem, but I bought one off ebay from USA, I can't understand why they have discontinued this one as like you say, it is a basic shape. Good Luck with your search.

Hi Julia
ReplyDeleteThis card is gorgeous, I've actually bought this stamp along with the Let It Snow. It makes a statement on a card with not much extra added to it.
Love the card and the colour thank you Julia love June xxxx
ReplyDeleteHi Julia,
ReplyDeleteI love the effect of the adorning square over the gold card. I thought I had every square die I could possibly need - but perhaps not!
The Christmas inspiration is great and sooner or later I will actually make a start...
