Remember

Hi Bloggers.

Back from a great weekend at Craftasmic in Taunton. I've been given some extra shows on Hochanda tomorrow at 10am, 1pm and 6pm. They're very techniques driven so I hope you can join me.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I popped a piece of Creative Expressions Double Sided Self Adhesive on to a paper from the Couture Creations Hearts Ease 6 x 6 Paper Pad. I removed the backing sheet and added Cosmic Shimmer Diamond Sprinkles. I popped a Cream Pearl Corner in each corner.

I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Fabulous Sentiments Stamp Set onto Milk Card using Coffee Archival. I cut it out using the Couture Creations Scrolled Tomentosa Die Set and inked through the die with Phill Martin Cosmic Shimmer Decadent Oak Colour Cloud Blending Ink using a Smoothie.

I cut the largest die in the Scrolled Tomentosa Die Set out of Milk Card. I rubbed Enchanted Gold Gilding Wax over the surface of the frame and cover the inner section with Decadent Oak Colour Cloud.

I tied a bow using 2 lengths of Antique White Satin Ribbon. I rubbed some Enchanted Gold Gilding Wax over the surface of a Dazzler Setting and a Gold Dazzler.

I assembled the card as shown adding some 5mm White Pearls and piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  19. Lovely card, Julia. I was going to say I hope you can have a rest today after Taunton but that is obviously not going to be the case! It's great that you and the rest of the team are being given time to show us techniques in detail.

    I love the Hearts Ease papers especially with the pearl corners, the Scrolled Tomentosa Die Set looks very effective on it. Thanks for sharing.
