Daisy Swirl meets Polished Silk Glitter

Hi Bloggers.

This card was on display at Ally Pally and I promised I would post it this week so here it is.

Lots of Polished Silk Glitter on this one.

For the background, I dusted the Leaves Mask lightly with an Anti-Static Bag. I put some DS Adhesive Sheet onto some card, peeled the backing off and added my mask dusted side down. I covered with Penny Copper Polished Silk Glitter really rubbing it in with my fingers. I rubbed the excess off the mask and then peeled it off the DS Sticky. I then rubbed some Golden Sand Polished Silk Glitter into the newly exposed adhesive. I kept rubbing until all the excess was removed and the surface felt nice and smooth.

I stamped the Daisy Swirl using Perfect Medium and embossed with Copper Cosmic Shimmer Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Distressed Edges and inked through the die with Vintage Photo Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.

I cut a solid butterfly from a piece of card with DS Adhesive Sheet on it using Spellbinders Les Papillons. I added Golden Sand to it, rubbing it into the adhesive until smooth. I shaped the wings and added some Cream Pearls.

I die cut a Spellbinders Spiral Blossom Three from some card with DS Adhesive Sheet on it and rubbed in some Penny Copper until it was nice and smooth. I then rolled it and secured it using some Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue. I added a pearl in the centre. I cut 4 leaves using Spellbinders Rose Creations and added Golden Sand.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  16. Hi Julia this is definitely a glittery card!! Lol but it does look lovely and I don't normally use much glitter apart from at Xmas but I think I might just have to change that. The colours you have used go really well together too. Looking forward to your shows next week love Lesley x

  29. Lovely card Julia. My new butterfly masks from C&C have just arrived and would look great with the glitters.
    These glitters are smoother than a particular brand of loo roll, not that Im advocating using glittered card in that way, lol !!!

  30. Lovely card Julia, unusual colour combination but works well for me. Received my glitters from you now so will be playing this week hopefully. This card will remind me what to do.
    Thanks
