Celebrate Your Special Day

Hi Bloggers.

Hope you managed to grab a bargain yesterday - those stamps were amazing prices! They may still be available on the Hochanda website for a little while longer - don't miss out!

Here's today's card -

I cut a frame out of Coconut White Card using Sue Wilson's Double Pierced Squares. I used a beautiful stamp from the Justrite A Flower Flor Your Thoughts Stamp Set to stamp around the corners of the frame using Saffron Archival.

I embossed a piece of Coconut White Card using the Creative Expressions Leafy Quad Embossing Folder and mounted the frame onto it using 3d Foam.

I stamped the ornate frame from the Justrite Enjoy the Day Stamp Set using Saffron Archival. I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Birthday Vintage Labels Four Stamp Set using Fern Green Archival. I cut out using Justrite Vintage Labels Four Die Set.

I stamped the Justrite Cornflower Damask Background onto Coconut White Card using Saffron Archival. I cut a couple of Sue's Perfect Peony Complete Petals Dies out and shaped them to make a flower adding a 5mm White Pearl. I tied a bow using 2 lengths of Off White Satin Ribbon.

I completed the card by adding another couple of layers cut using Sue's Double Pierced Squares and some White Pearls Corners.

John Lockwood is launching a One Day Special this evening at 8pm and continuing tomorrow with a whole bunch of Sue's Dies and some gorgeous stamps. I'll add the items I have in stock to my website some time today. They'll appear in the As seen onTV section.

Thanks for stopping by.

    Thanks for all the great inspiration,

  26. Hi Julia, gorgeous card and love the Saffron used. Just stunning full stop! I managed to watch your last show last night using the mica collection on white and black card. Both are lovely but the black card just makes it stand out with an abundance of colours going on. Great to see you all having fun too with the presenters. It shines through! "Thank you Julia" xx Love Karen xx

  27. Hi Julia
    I love this card and the stamps you've used. I bought these awhile ago when you demoed them before. Well I'm not to sure if it was you or someone, apologies if it wasn't you. But they stamp beautifully.
