Thinking of You

Hi Bloggers.

Marilyn still hasn't claimed her prize. I'll give her till Tuesday and then I'll try something else!

I suppose the countdown to Christmas is on now, being December 1st. Can't say I'm really into it this year yet. Too much else going on at the moment.

Anyhow, here's today's card -

The background on this one is easy peasy - it's one of the card panels from the Heartfelt Creations Antiquity Paper Pad. It really gives the impression of lots of layers but it's completely flat. I added the Thinking of You border to the top (from the same pad).

I stamped the image from the Heartfelt Creations Floral Keys & Locket Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I coloured in using Aged Mahogany and Bundled Sage Distress Inks. I dabbed a little Flake & Glitter Glue onto the spray in the image and then added some Cosmic Shimmer Aurora Crystal Sparkle Glitter. I cut the image out using Spellbinders Labels 18 and inked through the die with Vintage Photo and Aged Mahogany Distress Inks. I added a couple of keys that I had previously stamped and cut using the Heartfelt Creations Burnished Key Stamp and Burnished Key Die Set. I also added a key from the Creative Expressions Assorted Key Charms Pack.

I made some flowers from some other papers in the Antiquity Pad using Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch Die Set, adding some Black Pearls to the centre. I also added some Faux Suede Leaves.

I assembled the card as shown adding some more pearls in the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
