Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
For the background, I stamped the large corner from the Belle of the Ball Stamp Set in each corner using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Ruby Lapis Lustre Embossing Powder. I then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Large Hepburn Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink.
I stamped the image from the same stamp set, using Perfect Medium and embossed with Ruby Lapis Lustre. I cut it out using Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet. I cut a decorative mat out of a couple of larger Radiant Rectangles and again inked through the die with Victorian Velvet.
I stamped the sentiment as before and cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels Four.
I tied a bow using White Crochet Ribbon. I pressed a Fancy Pearl Embellishment into a Perfect Medium Pad, added Ruby Lapis Lustre, tapped off the excess and heat set.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in White around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.

ReplyDeleteGood morning Julia,
ReplyDeleteI do like today's card as it is lovely with the halterneck dress and Crochet lace bow. Lovely colours of pink and not too much in the background to take away from the beautiful topper. Have ordered mine having seen some off the cards you have made with this beautiful stamp set.
