Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
The background is from the 8 x 8 Teresa Collins Paper Pad put together for Creative Expressions. I have added a few Newsprint Flourishes stamped with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink. I have edged the whole piece with Aged Mahogany using Cut n Dry Foam.
I stamped the image from the Bags of Style Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured in with Scarlet Flame Matt Drawing Ink from the Autumn Shades Set and Copper Mica Powder from the Metallics Set. I cut it out using Spellbinders Large Labels and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany. I cut a mat out of Burgundy Card using Spellbinders Decorative Labels 8.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, again using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Clear Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels Four and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany. I cut a larger Vintage Labels Four out of Burgundy card. The strip of contrasting paper is from the same paper pad and is actually the other side of the main background. I inked around the edges of it with Aged Mahogany.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Berry Red around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
