Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card.
For the background, I simply ran some Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Passion Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design. I cut 2 borders out using the Spellbinders Asian Accents die set. I removed them from the die and inked along the edge with Stormy Sky Distress Ink.
I stamped the floral heart from the Creative Expressions Wedding Bliss Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Arctic Lake Lustre Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Asian Motifs and inked through the die with Stormy Sky Distress Ink.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Arctic Lake Lustre. I cut it out using Spellbinders Blossom 5 and inked through the die with Stormy Sky.
I tied a bow using White Crochet Ribbon. I pressed a Fancy Pearl Embellishment into Perfect Medium, added some Arctic Lake Lustre, tapped off the excess and heat set.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlecent PVA in White around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
Morning Julia,

I am loving the cards you're making with the Asian motifs - I've had mine for ages and used them maybe once but you've revived my inspiration to use them again! This is a lovely card, Julia, gorgeous colour too

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card today. I love those asian dies and I must get mine out and have a play with them. I think I prefer the plainer dies to the really fancy ones that are available now
