All the Rules

Hi Bloggers.

A card from the ladies shows today.

I started with a piece of Coconut White Card for the background. I dusted it with my anti static bag and, with the stamp in my hand, randomly stamped the A6 Rose Background (more on order) with Perfect Medium. I added Cosmic Shimmer Tropic Blaze Aqua Embossing Powder from the Brights Set and heat set. Then, again with the stamp in my hand, I filled in the gaps with the A6 Art Collage Stamp using Stormy Sky Distress Ink. I blotted the background with a piece of kitchen roll to remove the ink from the embossed areas (it won't dry) and edged with Stormy Sky using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the image from the Creative Expressions Party Ladies Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I used Blue Lace and Blue Cotton from the Soft Velvet Set, Cosmic Tone and Caramel Blush from the Skin Tones Set. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 25 and inked through the die with Stormy Sky.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, again using Jet Black Archival and embossed with clear powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Card Creator Distressed Edges and inked through the die with Stormy Sky.

I tied a bow using Blue/White Striped Grosgrain Ribbon and added a Frosted Blue Dazzler.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
