My Little Princess

Hi Bloggers.

Today I'm sharing a card from Tuesday's shows. Before I show it to you, I wanted to show you the embossing powders that I've selected for the shows. You loved the ones I selected for the Wedding Shows so I thought I'd choose 4 more for Tuesday's Shows other set of 4 for the Tuesday after.

Here's the samples I've made for this Tuesday - shown on white and black card.

Hopefully, the cameras will be able to pick up the colours a bit better than I've managed. Some of them look different depending on the angle you hold them towards the light. All of the colours above are currently available in my Amazon Shop here.

Here's the card I'm sharing today - you are not allowed to say you don't like green!

The background is simply a piece of Coconut White Card run though the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Hyper Magical Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Peeled Paint Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the Fishtail Frock Pre Cut Stamp using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I used Meadow Lime and Jade Teal from the Garden Twist Set and a little Cosmic Tone from the Skin Tones Set. I cut it out with scissors and went around the edges with a Black Promarker to hide any white bits.

I cut a Spellbinders Wonky Rectangle out of Coconut White Card. After embossing, I left the card in the die and stamped the Justrite Fleur de Lis Background Stamp through the die using Peeled Paint Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and any excess removed from the die itself and then inked though the die with Peeled Paint using Cut n Dry Foam.

I cut another Wonky Rectangle out of Green Card. Using it the other way up, I stamped the Fleur de Lis Background Stamp through the die, this time using Perfect Medium. I carefully removed the die cut from the die and added Cosmic Shimmer Lapis Orange Lustre Embossing Powder and heat set. I removed any excess mica with a dry wetwipe. I stamped the sentiment and the frame from the Justrite Forever Friends Pre Cut Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Ribbon Tags Trio 3 (which co-ordinates beautifully) and inked through the die with Peeled Paint. I cut the end bits off the die cut.

I tied a bow using 2 lengths of Aqua Silky Crush Ribbon and added a Teal Dazzler.

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

I'm off to see Kathryn in Portsmouth today as she went back to Uni earlier than planned last weekend while I was at Ally Pally and I didn't get my goodbye hug! While I'm gone - remember no 'don't like green comments'!

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
