Hugs & Kisses

Hi Bloggers.

Today I have shows on Create & Craft at 12noon (2 hours) with Nigel and at 5pm with Dawn. Hope you can join me and perhaps email in.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I stamped the Scroll Corner from the Creative Expressions Scroll Border & Corner Set using Seedless Preserves Distress Ink in the 2 bottom corners. I made sure the ink was dry and then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Exotic Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time and inked around the edges with Seedless Preserves.

 

I stamped the Creative Expressions Rose Striplet twice using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Blue Maroon Aurora Embossing Powder (from the Pinks set which is on the show). I cut them both out using scissors and inked around the edges with Seedless Preserves.

The Creative Expressions Ribbon & Rose Heart Stamp Set comes with 2 sentiments. I stamped the Hugs & Kisses sentiment using Perfect Medium and added some Blue Maroon Aurora Embossing Powder (I did not heat set yet). I cut the centre of the ribbon section of my stamp out so that I could see through to position it correctly over the sentiment, stamping with Perfect Medium again. I added the Blue Maroom Aurora and heat set the whole thing. I cut it out using Spellbinders Pearl Effects and inked through the die with Seedless Preserves.

I tied a bow using Cream Crochet Ribbon. I made a flower using the Heartfelt Creations Sweet Juliet Die Set (yes it's back!), with a little felt from the Vintage Felt Pack and a Rhinestone Brad.

I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Pearl PVA in Crystal around the edges.

See you later!

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
