Have a Beautiful Day

Hi Bloggers

A Peach Card today. I was hoping to demo this on Tuesday morning but we ran out of time.

For the background, I inked through the Elegance Border mask (on order) with Dried Marigold Distress Ink - I did this 3 times across the card. I then stamped the Beaded Swirl stamp around the background using Tattered Rose Distress Ink.

I stamped the Heart and Soul stamp (more on order) using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Lapis Orange Lustre Embossing Powder (this powder turns green on dark card). I coloured in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I popped some Sunflower from the Summer Fayre Set onto a tile. I added a little Marigold from the Autumn Shades Set and mixed them together to create an orange colour. I used the brush from the Marigold pot to colour in making sure I dried it before returning it to the pot. I cut the image out using Spellbinders Wonky Rectangles and inked through the die with Dried Marigold.

I stamped the sentiment that comes with the Vintage Corset (again more on order) using Perfect Medium and embossed with the Lapis Orange Lustre Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Ribbon Tags Trio 3 and inked through the die with Dried Marigold.

I tied a bow using 2 lengths of White Silky Crush Ribbon and added a Frosted Peach Dazzler.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  13. Absolutely Gorgeous card Julia. I so love these shoe stamps so very feminine and I LOVE shoes!!LOL! So the sentiment that comes with the stamps about never having to many shoes suits me down to the ground. Your cards are really lovely and I loved your demos very much.

    Happy Crafting

  23. Good morning all. Would say more orange than peach but that's a good thing.
    Simple but elegant and brightening a dull day.
