Happy Birthday & Amazon Store Stock Updates

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I ran a piece of Milk Card through the Grand Calibur with Sue Wilson's Cascading Hearts Embossing Folder.

I stamped the shoe from the Creative Expressions Floral Footsteps stamp set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using a Spellbinders Grand Stately Circle and cut a larger Stately Circle out of Black Card.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Clear Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels Four and a mat out of Black Card using Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles.

I made 2 flowers out if Black Crochet Ribbon, 1 scrunched up flower using the middle sized die from Spellbinders Blossom 5 and 2 scrunched up flowers using the next smallest die from the Blossom 5 set.

I stamped some leaves using the Heartfelt Creations Open Leaf Stamp Set and cut them out using the Heartfelt Creations Classic Leaf die set.


I assembled the card as shown adding an 8mm Black Pearl in each corner and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Golden Pearl around the edges.

I've received the 2 new shoe stamp sets and the 2 stamps sets that are on my shows next Tuesday plus the new smaller size Fancy Pearl Embellishments.

Garden Party

Floral Footsteps
Belle of the Ball
Bags of Style
Aren't these stamp sets just gorgeous?

Here's the link for the small fancy pearl embellishments here.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
