Love

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

I started by misting a piece of Coconut White Card with water. I sprinkled CS Emerald Green Pixie Powder over and put aside to dry.

For the background, I embossed a piece of Coconut White Card with the Creative Expressions Dotted Matrix PinPoint Embossing Folder.

I cut the outer die from the border in Sue Wilson's Swiss Corner, Border & Tag Die Set out of my PP background twice. I cut both of the border dies together out of Coconut White Card twice and added them to the PP die cuts.

I masked off the 'with' from the With Love Sentiment from the Woodware Blooming Heart Stamp Set. I inked up 'love' using Cobalt Archival, removed the mask and stamped onto Coconut White Card. I cut it out using #1 die from Sue's Zurich Die Set.

I cut dies #2, #4 #6 from the Zurich set out of my PP background. I cut dies #1 & #2 together, #3 and #4 together, and #5 and #6 together out of Coconut White Card. I paired the die cuts together and stacked them up.

I made a flower out of my PP background and Coconut White Card using Sue's Delicate Daisies : Complete Petals and Delicate Daisies : Open Petals. I added an 8mm Aqua Dazzler to the centre.

I cut a pair of leaves out of Coconut White Card using Sue's Lace Edged Leaves.

For a mat, I misted around the edged of a piece of Coconut White Card with water and sprinkled over Emerald Green Pixie Powder. I spread it around with a Brush. Once dry, I added it to a Coconut White Card blank and added my card design.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  23. Love this card, it's beautiful. I know this may seem a silly question Julia, but as a new card maker I don't which way you are numbering your dies. Is number one die the innermost or outer die. Thank you in advance.
