Hi Bloggers.
A very simple card today made using the Fashionista : A Day Shopping Stamp Set.
For the background, I ran some Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Ambrosia Embossing Folder. I inked around the edges with Dusty Concord Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.
I stamped Sadie using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured her in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks and then cut her out using Spellbinders Lacy Ovals. I inked through the die with Dusty Concord.
I threaded some Mauve Rose American Seam Binding through the holes in the die cut and tied a bow. I added one of the new Dazzlers to the centre (coming soon!).
I stamped the sentiment from the Fashionista : Best Friends Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with clear powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Fancy Framed Tags Two and inked through the die with Dusty Concord.
I assembled the card ash shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Purple Violet around the edges. I also added a 5mm White Pearl to each corner.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
Hi Julia, love the card and especially the colour. And that ribbon threaded through the die cut if brilliant, it really makes the image stand out. Bx
