Leaks!

Hi Bloggers.

Here's another Ethel and Murray card from the shows on Friday.

For the background I popped some pale lavender card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Radiant Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the pattern. I inked all over with Dusty Concord Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the image from the Creative Expressions Ethel & Friends Stamp Set using Cobalt Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured the image in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks and then cut it out.

I stamped the image again and cut out using Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Five and inked through the die with Dusty Concord. I mounted the coloured image on top using 3d Foam Pads.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set again using cobalt archival and embossed with clear powder.

I tied a bow with 2 lengths of Mauve Rose American Seam Binding, spritzed it with water, scrunched it up and dried it with my heat gun. I added a button from my stash with some Baker's Twine from the Vintage Set tied through it.

I assembled the card as shown piercing around the edges with my Tim Holtz Design Ruler.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
