Rules!

Hi Bloggers.

I still have a few cards to share from the Ladies shows - hope you don't mind.

For the background, I used Coconut White Card and with the stamp in my hand, I randomly stamped the Rose Background Stamp using Tumbled Glass Distress Ink and then I filled in the gaps with the Art Collage Stamp using Stormy Sky Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Passion Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the pattern and then inked around the edges with Tumbled Glass 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, Umber from the Autumn Shades Set and Cosmic Tone from the Skin Tones Set. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 25 and inked through the die with Tumbled Glass.

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

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.
