There are Big Ships

Hi Bloggers.

Here's a card from yesterday's shows -

I love the detail on the Tea Clipper stamp (one of Sam's designs). The Persian Sea Aurora Embossing Powder keeps all the detail and looks absolutely stunning (I think) with this stamp. Salty Ocean Distress Ink is a perfect partner for the Persian Sea Aurora Embossing Powder too.

On to the card - for the right-hand side of the background, I misted with Cosmic Shimmer Egyptian Blue Vintage Mister. I dried it with my heat tool (I'm impatient!) and then inked through the Knitted Mask (don't you think it looks a bit like rope or even waves?) with Salty Ocean Distress Ink. I moved the mask down the card to extend the design. I ran a piece of Kraftcore Cardstock through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Heavy Duty Embossing Folder and sanded it to reveal the core.

I stamped the Tea Clipper using Perfect Medium and embossed with Persian Sea Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders Card Creator Fancy Postage Edge and inked through the die with Salty Ocean. I threaded some Bakers Twine from the Vintage Set through the holes.

I stamped the sentiment that comes with the Tea Clipper, again using Perfect Medium and embossed with Persian Sea Aurora. I cut it out using another die from the Fancy Postage Edge die set and inked through the die with Salty Ocean.

I assembled the card as shown adding a couple of Idea-ology Mini Gears and a Custom Fastener to the Kraftcore panel and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Cobalt around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
