Hi Bloggers.
I don't think that this sample card got shown at all which is a shame as it's one of my favourites.
For the background, I dusted a piece of Milk Card with my Anti-Static Bag. I had my Grand Calibur base plate with the tan mat on it ready and placed the card, dusted side up, onto it. I inked over a large section of the Autumn Leaves Mask with Perfect Medium. I placed this, ink side down, on top of the card and then put the pink embossing plate on top and ran it through the Grand Calibur. The Perfect Medium Ink transferred to the debossed pattern on the card. I sprinkled some Copper Bronze Lustre Embossing Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Metallics & Darks Set over the ink and heat set. I brushed away the excess mica with a dry wet-wipe. I then inked all over with Butterscotch Adirondack Dye Ink using Cut n Dry Foam and then around the edges with Rust Adirondack.
I dusted a piece of Milk Card with my Anti-Static Bag. I stamped the image from the Creative Expressions Dandelion Wishes Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with the Copper Bronze Lustre Powder. I brushed away the excess Powder with my dry we-wipe. I cut the image out using a Spellbinders Fancy Postage Edge die and inked through the die with Rust Adirondack.
I cut the largest die from the Fancy Postage Edge from Tan card. At the emboss stage I added the Leaves Border Mask. I inked through the die with Rust Adirondack.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set - again using Perfect Medium, embossed with the Copper Bronze Lustre and wiped away the excess mica. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 24 and inked through the die with Rust.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Olympic Gold around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
