Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

As promised, I have a sneak peek today from tomorrow's shows. Sue's artist has drawn some fabulous stamp designs with a dance theme - really appropriate with Strictly just started. There are 8 different stamps in the singles range and I've put together a dance themed A5 Sentiment Set called Step by Step. I've also put a pair of Phill Martin's Background Stamps on the show. I've loaded all these onto ebay here.

Here's your sneak peek -

For the background, with the stamp in my hand, I stamped Phill Martin's Vintage Script Background all around the edges of a piece of Coconut White Card with Faded Jeans Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Feather Frenzy Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Faded Jeans. I rubbed Pearl Moon over the embossed surface. I left it a few minutes to dry and then buffed it up using a dry wet wipe.

I stamped the image which we've called Salsa (it could also be a Rumba, I think, hence the sentiment that I chose for this card) using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Steel Blue Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Marvelous Squares and inked through the die with Faded Jeans. I cut a Spellbinders Grand Squares Die out of Sky Blue Card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Step by Step Sentiment Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Steel Blue Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 8 and inked through the die with Faded Jeans.

I cut a couple of leaves using Sue's Petite Vinery Die Set and made a flower out of White Crochet Ribbon.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Small Circle Dazzlers to the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Cosmic Pearl around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
