You are so Kind

Hi Bloggers.

Today I'm sharing one of the sample cards I made for tomorrow's shows. However, it does include a die that isn't on the shows as it sold out from the repeats of Christine's shows.

For the background, I placed the Butterflies Mask onto some Coconut White Card. I spritzed with some Cosmic Shimmer Vintage Mister in Egyptian Blue. It splodged a bit (just need to take the top off and run some water through to release mica powder that has bunged spray up) but I like a few splodges. I dried it with my heat tool and then inked through the Floral Vines Mask randomly with Faded Jeans Distress Ink. I randomly stamped a flower from the Creative Expressions Button Florals Stamp Set and a butterfly from the Creative Expressions Floral Silhouette Stamp Set using Faded Jeans.

I cut a Spellbinders Card Creator Fancy Postage Edge out of blue card. I stamped my sentiment from the Creative Expressions Kind Thoughts Stamp Set using Cobalt Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using the Spellbinders Card Creator Polka Dots (not on the show). I cut a frame out of Foundations Blue Dot and Dash Paper using Spellbinders Jewel Framed Sentiments - I cut the hanging loop bit off it. I cut a couple of little flowers using the Homespun die set and inked through the die with Faded Jeans. I assembled this batch of die cuts as shown.

I made a flower out of the blue Dot and Dash Paper using the six petal blank flower stamp on the Button Florals Stamp Set. Sue has done a tutorial on the Creative Expressions website on how to make these here. I tied a bow using some blue Sheer Dots Ribbon and added the flower to it.

I pressed a couple of Creative Expressions Art Deco Corners into a Perfect Medium Ink Pad and then sprinkled some Cosmic Shimmer Silver Shine Metallic Embossing Powder over. I shook off the excess and heat set.

I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Teal Sky around the edges.

We had a great day at Thorpe Park yesterday. Here's a pic from Loggers Leap which is one of my fave rides.

My shows are confirmed for tomorrow on the Tool Shed at 12noon with Dean and at 5pm with Lottie.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
