Best Daughter in Blue

Hi Bloggers.

I'm heading off to Ally Pally this afternoon to set up for the show which is on Saturday and Sunday. If you're going, please come and say Hi - I'll be on the Creative Expressions Stand with Sam, Leonie and John. I'll be doing a demo in the demo area at 12noon each day (about 20 mins long).

Here's today's card -

For the background, I stamped the border from the Garden Party Stamp Set using Salty Ocean Distress Ink along the top and the bottom of a piece of Coconut White Card. I made sure the ink was dry and then embossed the central area with the Lattice Mask by running it through the Grand Calibur. I ran it through a second time to extend the design - so easy to line this one up as it's a repeating pattern. I inked around the edges with Salty Ocean using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the image from the same stamp set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Persian Sea Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles and inked through the die with Salty Ocean. I cut the largest 2 dies out of the same set and again inked through the die with Salty Ocean.

I stamped the sentiment from the Floral Footsteps Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Persian Sea Aurora. I cut it out using 2 dies from the Spellbinders Nobel Rectangles Die Set and inked through the die with Salty Ocean.

I tied a bow using White Crochet Ribbon and added a Small Fancy Pearl Embellishment which I coloured with Persian Sea Aurora Embossing Powder,

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
