Life is better

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

The background on this one uses the Justrite Floral Flourishes Background which is really pretty. I dusted a piece of Coconut White Card with my anti static bag. I stamped the Floral Flourishes Background using Perfect Medium. I stamped it a second time to extend the design. I overlapped it slightly but you can't tell. I then added Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder and heat set. I then rubbed Fired Brick Distress Ink all over using Cut n Dry Foam. I'm really not sure why this turned out so light when I demoed it - the joys of live tv!

I stamped the Delightful Lily using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured it in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I used Marigold from the Autumn Shades Set and Soft Moss from the Garden Twist Set. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 29 and inked through the die with Fired Brick. I stamped the Lily again and cut just the flower head out using scissors. I went around the edges with a black marker pen to hide any white bits. I coloured it in using the Marigold Matt Drawing ink, shaped it with a bone folder and popped it on top of the original image using 3D Foam.

I stamped the sentiment from the Heartfelt Creations Timeless Sentiments Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with clear powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles and inked through the die with Fired Brick.

I tied a bow using White Satin Edged Organza and added a Red Dazzler.

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

Thanks for stopping by.
