For You

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card.

For the background, I randomly stamped a heart using Barn Door Distress Ink and a funky flower using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink - both from the Creative Expressions Funky Floral Stamp Set. I then criss-crossed some Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in White across it - remember to change the nozzle on the PVA to a Dries Clear Nozzle if trying this. I left it to dry overnight. Once dry, I ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Damask Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the pattern and inked around the edges with Aged Mahogany using Cut n Dry Foam.

I put the two word stamps together on my block to form the sentiment and stamped with Perfect Medium. I embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Blue Raspberry Aurora Embossing Powder from the Pinks & Purples Set. I cut it out using Spellbinders Matting Basics B and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany. I mounted it onto some burgundy card cut with a new Spellbinders Locking Loops die.

I cut some more burgundy card using another of the Locking Loops dies and threaded some Cream Silky Crush Ribbon through it and wrapped the ends around my background.

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

Thanks for stopping by.
