Love

Hi Bloggers.

What a busy, fun weekend! Hope you enjoyed it too. I can tell you, I was pretty tired by the time I got home last night! A day of unpacking and catching up on stuff today.

Here's today's card -

This card is made from Coconut White Card - change the colour ink pad to suit.

I dusted a piece of card with my Anti Static Bag and stamped the Justrite Stitched Frame Background using Clear Perfect Medium. I embossed with CS Clear Embossing Powder. I then applied Mountain Rose Adirondack Dye Ink using a Smoothie. I rubbed a piece of Kitchen Roll over it to removed the excess ink from the embossed design (the ink won't dry there).

I made a rosette - this time with the Couture Creations Christmas Seedling Die cut twice. I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Friends Antique Labels One Stamp Set using Mountain Rose Ink applied with a Smoothie. I cut it out using Justrite Antique Labels One Dies and inked through the die with Mountain Rose.

I inked a piece of White Crochet Ribbon with Mountain Rose ink applied with my Smoothie. I cut it in half lengthways and made 2 flowers. I cut the Couture Creations Holly Branch Die 4 times, trimming a little off them at the berries end.

I assembled the card as shown piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.

    Hi Julia
    It was a fun weekend and I mabaged to record all the shows but reception was a bit iffy in my area cos of the snow. We got about 3" of the stuff. It's gone now - great!
    The shows were good fun but I bet you are all really tired from it.
    Let's do it all again!!!
    Well done to you all!

    Morning Julia, a beautiful card lovely bright colour. Disappointed I didn't catch any of the shows the signal wasn't strong enough I think it wouldn't stream so hopefully you will all do it again.
