Hi Bloggers.
I thought I'd share a Sunkissed Fleur sample today -
For the background I did some proper stamping of the Justrite Sweet Lace Background using Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I stamped it twice to cover the area. I made sure the ink was dry and then ran it through the Grand Calibur with Sue Wilson's Heart Lattice Embossing Folder.
I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Natures Sentiments Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles and inked through the die with Tumbled Glass. I cut a larger Resplendent Rectangle out of Baby Blue Pearlescent Card from my stash.
I stamped the Heartfelt Creations Striped Sunkissed Fleur stamp twice using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut them out using the Heartfelt Creations Sunkissed Fleur Die. I selected 2 sets of 3 different sized flowers. I first coloured them in using Tumbled Glass Distress Marker. I blinged them up a bit using Cosmic Shimmer Patina Vintage Mister. Then I gave them a bit more bling by rubbing some Pearl Moon Gilding Wax over the top. I shaped them as per the Heartfelt Creations YouTube video, stacked them up and added an 8mm Cream Pearl in the centre of each.
I stamped some leaves from the Heartfelt Creations Open Leaf stamps using Old Paper Distress Ink. I cut them out using the Heartfelt Creations Classic Leaf Die Set.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Summer Blue around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
Good morning Julia,
ReplyDeleteThis is a really lovely card, it reminds me to emboss and use the inks to help make it pop. Nice job as always....

ReplyDeleteHi Julia,
Lovely card. X
Good morning Julia,
ReplyDeleteI like everything on today's card except the pearl dots around it as on the pictures it just doesn't seen to match and spoils your beautiful card. The colours are coming over the screen as pale soft green and a teal shade for the flowers, but the pearl dots are a definite blue, hence the opening summary. The sunkissed striped flower dies and stamps i think are going to have to go on the need list and off the want one as every time i see these lovely stamps done i think they look better and better.
Have a good day flower
love and crafty hugs
