A dance two-fer

Hi Bloggers.

I have a couple of easel cards for you today.

For the background in the top section, with the stamp in my hand I randomly stamped Phill Martin's Vintage Sheet Music Background onto Milk Card using Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink. I repeated the process using Phill Martin's Vintage Script Background using Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and popped it through the Grand Calibur with the Rows of Bows PinPoint Embossing Folder and inked around the edges with Peacock Feathers. I rubbed Enchanted Gold Gilding Wax all over the embossed surface. I left it to dry for a few minutes and then buffed it up using a Dry Wet Wipe.

I repeated the above for the background on the bottom section, swapping the inks used for the background stamps.

I stamped the Paso Doble Stamp using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Lapis Black Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics A and inked through the die with Peacock Feathers. I cut a Spellbinders Pearl Effects out of Teal Card.

I made a flower out if Sheer Iridescent Ribbon and cut some leaves out od Teal Card using Sue's Curled Vines Die Set.

I stamped the sentiment from the Step by Step Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Lapis Black Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders A2 Curved Matting Basics A and inked through the die with Peacock Feathers. I cut a Spellbinders Fancy Postage Edge Die out of Teal Card. I used this as the stopper.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Small Black Circle Dazzlers to the corners.

Here's the second card -

I stamped the Salsa Stamp using Perfect Medium onto Milk Card and embossed with Lapis Black Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders Marvelous Squares and inked through the die with Peacock Feathers. I cut a couple of Spellbinders Grand Squares out of Teal Card and Milk Card.

I ran a piece of Teal Card through the Grand Calibur with the Floral Brocade PinPoint Embossing Folder. I rubbed Patina Gilding Wax all over the embossed surface. I left it to dry for a few minutes and then buffed it up using a dry wet wipe.

I stamped the sentiment from the Step by Step Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Lapis Black Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 29 and inked through the die with Peacock Feathers. I added it to the bottom section with a piece of Black Tulle underneath it.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Small Circle Dazzlers to the top section.

I hope you have enjoyed today's two-fer.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
