Hugs and Kisses

Hi Bloggers.

Thanks for all your comments and emails yesterday. I think that was the most comments I've had on a post so far. Here's the demo card that I didn't quite finish yesterday.

For the background, I ran some Coconut white Card through the Grand Calibur with the Spellbinders Hearts M-Bossabilities Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the pattern. This is not a repeating pattern - the Tropic Wine American Seam Binding hides the join on this one. I went around the edges with Raisin Adirondack Dye Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Nature's Sentiments Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Persian Motifs and inked through the die with Raisin Ink. I cut the largest of the Spellbinders Splendid Circles out of Burgundy Card. At the emboss stage I added the Celtic Border Mask.

I made 3 flowers using the Bitty Blossoms die set inking through the dies with Raisin Ink before rolling.

I tied a bow using 3 lengths of the Tropic Wine American Seam Binding and added it to the piece on my background. I added a Black Dazzler to the centre.

I assembled the card as shown adding a Black Swirl and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Berry Red (more stock due in soon) around the edges.

Thanks or stopping by.

Julia.
