Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
For the background, I first inked through the Eyelet Lace Mask with Faded Jeans Distress Ink (not randomly, all over). Then, with the stamp in my hand, I used the top section of the Raindrops on Roses Birthday Stamp and stamped all over the background with Faded Jeans Distress Ink. To add texture, I ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Knitted Mask and then inked around the edges with Faded Jeans.
I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Natures Sentiments Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Decorative Labels One and inked through the die with Faded Jeans Distress Ink.
I stamped the Heartfelt Creations Vintage Morning Background using Cobalt Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut all the flowers out using the Heartfelt Creations Majestic Blooms Die. I painted 5 of the flowers with Tropic Blue Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Garden Flora Mica Spray Set. I shaped them a little and added an 8mm White Pearl to the centres.
I assembled the card as shown adding a Pearl Swirl and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pastel PVA in Pastel Blue around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
