Hi Bloggers.

Bit of folding on this card from the Pick of the Week.

For the background, I popped some Coconut White card through the Grand Calibur with the Radiant Embossing Folder. I put it through a second time to extend the pattern. I inked around the edges with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.

I cut the smallest of the Spellbinders Grand Decorative Ovals One dies out of white card and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet. I cut the square motif from the Asian Accents die set out of pink card. I then cut 2 of the circles from the Asian Accents die set and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet. I scored across each of the circle die cuts, cut to the centre along one of the score lines and then folded. I joined the 2 circles together using Cosmic Shimmer Dies Clear Glue. I cut a little piece from white card using the Asian Accents die set, inking through the die with Victorian Velvet. I assembled the feature piece on top of the background as shown adding a Studio 490 Embellish Your Art Pink & Gold Flower Button.

I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Dandelion Wishes Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Six and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet. I added an Idea-ology Memo Pin to it. I put a foam pad on the back of a Pink Zipper Rose and pushed the memo pin into it. I cut 2 'leaves' out of pink card using the Venetian Motifs die set and added them to my background. I popped the zipper rose sentiment piece on top.

I finished the card by adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Cosmic Pearl (white) around the edges.

Hope you like this one.

Thanks for stopping by.
