My Wish For You

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

This was a demo from Thursday. For the background, I used Milk Card. For this one, I wasn't random with the mask, I just popped the Delicate Mask on top of the card and inked through with Scattered Straw Distress Ink. With the stamp in my hand, I randomly stamped the Heartfelt Creations Script Kay Background with Scattered Straw. I then repeated the process with the new Creative Expressions Floral Background using Bundled Distress Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Jazmyne Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Scattered Straw.

 I stamped the image twice using the Heartfelt Creations Floral Keys and Locket Stamp Set, Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut one out using Spellbinders Stately Circles and inked through the die with Scattered Straw. I coloured in using Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I used Sunflower from the Summer Fayre Set, Soft Moss from the Garden Twist Set and Umber from the Autumn Shades Set. I added a little Cosmic Shimmer Aqua Twinkles. I cut the central part of the other image out using the Heartfelt Creations Burnished Key Die (I made a template first from the whole die and placed the corresponding shape over the image, secured it with removable tape and then cut out). I coloured this with Umber Matt Drawing Ink and used 3d foam to lay it on top of the main image. I added a couple of little keys from the Burnished Key Stamp/Burnished Key Die that I had left over from another project.

I made a flower out of Cream Guipure Duchess Lace following the same method as in Sue's tutorial here. I stamped a couple of Heartfelt Creations Bold Leaves using Bundled Sage and embossed using Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut them out using Heartfelt Creations Classic Leaf Die Set.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Cream Pearls in 3 of the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pastel PVA in Pastel Lemon around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.
