Pink Mini

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

This is one of those cards when I challenge you to think of what would normally be a stamp for a man's card but done in girly colours can be for a lady too.

I love the background on this one. I used Milk Card. I spritzed all over with Antique Rose Cosmic Shimmer Vintage Mister. I dried it with my heat tool and then inked through the Fleur de Lys Tiles Mask with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink. I moved the mask along the card to extend the design. I then stamped the new Beaded Flourish Stamp all over.

I stamped the Mini using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Lapis Pink Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet.

I stamped the sentiment that comes with the Beaded Flourish using Perfect Medium and embossed with Lapis Pink Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders Opulent Ovals and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Cream Pearls in the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Vintage Pink around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
