Friends are a Wonderful Gift and Blog Candy draw

Hi Bloggers.

I have noticed that we have exceeded the 600 followers mark so I have drawn a name at random and the winner is ........

Mags!

Please email me at juliawattscrafts@gmail.comand I'll get your prize in the post to you.

Today's card is one of my favourites from the shows on Monday and it was a demo in the 7pm show.

For the background, I inked through the Doodle Daisies Mask with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam. Then I stamped one of the larger swirls from the Embellishing Flourishes Stamp Set around the edges using Tumbled Glass. With the stamp in my hand I then randomly stamped the Plaid Stamp again using Tumbled Glass.I made sure the ink was dry and then inked around the edges with Tumbled Glass using Cut n Dry Foam. I wrapped some White Crochet Ribbon around the centre.

I stamped the sentiment from the Classic Sentiments Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Decorative Labels 8 and inked through the die with Tumbled Glass. I cut the next size up out of Foundations Shades Paper and again inked through the die with Tumbled Glass.

I made a flower using Spellbinders Spiral Blossom 4, inking through the die before rolling. I added a Pearl Swirl as a spray coming from the flower rather than adding some leaves or a bow.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Pearls in the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in White around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
