Hi Bloggers.
I have shows today on Create & Craft at 12noon (2 hours with Nigel) and at 5pm (with Dawn).I hope you can join me to see two gorgeous collections from Hearfelt Creations. I'm glad you've enjoyed the 2 sneak peaks I've shared so far. Today I thought I'd share 2 easy peasy cards.
Here's the first one -
The background is from one stamp - the Heartfelt Creations Floral Doorway and Latch Key Stamp - it's huge! I stamped it using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I inked around the very edges with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam.
The key is the same one as I used in yesterday's card, from the Heartfelt Creations Burnished Key Stamp and then cut out using the Heartfelt Creations Burnished Key Die. I mounted it up on 3d Foam and added a Pink Glass Glintz.
All the flowers have been made out of felt from the Vintage Felt Pack using the Heartfelt Creations Sweet Juliet Die Set. The brads are from my stash. The leaves are also from the Sweet Juliet Die Set.
I put some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges.
Here's the second card -
For the backgound, I ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Filigree Mask. Leaving the mask in place I inked through with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink. I also inked around the edges of the piece once the mask had been removed.
I stamped the heart stamp from the Heartfelt Creations Journey of Love Keys Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White Detail Embossing Powder, I cut it out using a die from the Spellbinders Lace Hearts Die Set (gorgeous die set!) and inked through the die with Victorian Velvet.
I assembled the card as shown adding some 8mm White Pearls in the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in White around the edges.
Tracey Laughton has made a lovely card using the Heartfelt Creations Burnished key Stamp and the Burnished Key Die. Click here to go and have a look at it on her blog.
Thanks for stopping by. See you later!
Julia.

ReplyDeleteBoth cards are stunning today and so different. The flowers for the first card are fab and another one to add to the stash. Will be tuning in later but still sitting on the hands and thinking of putting cards in the freezer to stop temptation.

ReplyDeleteLovely cards Julia. Enjoy your day at C&C. x
ReplyDeletePretty cards Julia, will be watching you at 12! Love the flowers, but I thought the dies were expensive, so won't be buying them, sadly, my budget won't run to that.
ReplyDeleteTwo lovely cards Julia my favourite is the first one, will be watching today all my love Jean Z xxx
ReplyDeleteJust love both these cards, can't wait for Tool Shed xx
ReplyDeletelove the flowers in this first card ,just fab .Laura O
ReplyDeleteGood morning Julia,
ReplyDeleteI love both of today's designs so it would be so hard to choose. The black and white card with the touch of colour is so nice and just enough to show off both aspects of the design.
The second card is beautiful in both design and colour combination. The soft inking through just highlights the heart and lock lovely. I like the back die embossed part, it's a beautiful die when embossed and lightly coloured.
Love and crafty hugs

ReplyDeleteHi Julia, I really enjoyed watching you and Nigel earlier, you are so funny together, I love everything that you did and used.I will be watching you again with Dawn and I will have done my sum's by then, as my needs v money are not in my favour so will have to see what's left which in a way makes it easier. Thank you for all the hard work you do for us.

Both cards are beautiful today-love the flowers on the first card especially.Also saw your show with Nigel earlier and thoroughly enjoyed it-two favourites together on one show what more could I ask for?
ReplyDeleteHi all Wattsonettes and Julia when you're off air and home relaxing - maybe ! Completly missed the Tool Shed !!! Grrr or would have set to record, you 2 make such a 'team' soooo shattered as had my craft fair today. Love the cards today, the 2nd is so delicate, just the kind I love -.my fav of the two. Recording your 5pm show as I type my entry as I cant sit and watch, saying no more as my comment wouldn't be to everyone's taste !! And dont want to offend my blogging Wattsonettes. So I can fast forward to watch our gal at work and just hope I dont miss valuable help and tips - oh well.
ReplyDeleteIm going now so as not to get myself hung but I dare say you get my drift.
Hope you all had a lovely day. See you tomorrow. Take care.
