Hi Bloggers.
I made this card at Ally Pally in September. It's not brilliant but I thought I'd share it as I have the Precious Purse Singles Stamp Set in my Amazon Store at the moment.
The background is on Khaki Card. With the stamp in my hand, I randomly stamped the Vintage Filigree Stamp using Victorian Velvet Distress Ink, the Newsprint Stamp using Tattered Rose Distress Ink and the Bubbles Stamp using Dried Marigold Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Taylor Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and then rubbed Enchanted Gold Gilding Wax all over the surface. Once dry I buffed it up a bit with a dry wetwipe and inked around the edges with Dried Marigold.
I stampled the Precious Purse using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured in using Copper and Pale Gold Mica Powders from the Cosmic Shimmer Metallics Mica Spray Set and Orange Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Autumn Sunset Mica Spray Set. I cut out using Spellbinders Decorative Labels 8 and inked through the die with Dried Marigold.
I stamped the sentiment that comes with the purse, again using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Distressed Edges and inked through the die with Dried Marigold.
I stamped a couple of leaves from the Heartfelt Creations Open Leaf Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut them out using the Heartfelt Creations Classic Leaf Die Set. I made a scrunched flower out of Black Card using Spellbinders Blossom 5.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
Hi Julia

Hi Julia. I have to be honest an say that I am not mad about this one, sorry! I know we all like different things but I still feel bad when someone has put time and effort into a card that is not to my taste. The scrunched flower is great though. Have a good weekend. Are you demoing again or getting some rest? Take care.
