Be not afraid

Morning Bloggers.

Just to clear up any confusion about the shows on Monday. It was supposed to be just a boy themed show but Ideal World weren't happy with that so I have had to add in some girly stuff too. The stamps on offer on the show are - Skateboard Silhouettes, Anything is Possible, Urban Beats, Urban Life, Bubblewrap, Newsprint, Chicken Wire, Sole Creations and Stylish Ladies. I am hoping to pick up some stock of some of the stamps between shows on Monday.

On to today's card -

I popped some Kraftcore through the Grand Calibur with the Creative Expressions Crackle Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the pattern (the ribbon hides the join!). I then sanded it to reveal the core.

I stamped the image from the Creative Expressions Anything is Possible Stamp Set (also on Monday's shows) using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured it in using some Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Eight and inked through the die with Stormy Sky Distress Ink and Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Skateboard Silhouettes Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with clear powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Ribbon Tags Trio Three and again inked through the die with Stormy Sky. I threaded some Black American Seam Binding Through it and secured it to the back.

I coloured a couple of Antique Silver Faux Screw Brads with a black promarker and added them to the top 2 corners.

I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges (it flattens a little on the Kraftcore).

Thanks for stopping by.
