With You

Hi Bloggers.

Some new products have arrived in my Amazon Store (details at the end of this post).

Here's today's card -

For the background, I started by randomly inking through the Squared Mask with Dusty Concord Distress Ink. With the stamp in my hand, I randomly stamped the Creative Expressions Vintage Tapestry Stamp, again using Dusty Concord. I then stamped one of the images from the Heartfelt Creations Blooming Dahlia Stamp Set using Dusty Concord. I made sure the ink was dry and then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Joe's Garden Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Dusty Concord. I wrapped a piece of Black Guipure Duchess Lace along the right hand edge, securing with Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue.

 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 Cosmic Shimmer Matt Drawing Inks. I used Purple Violet from the Summer Fayre Set and Soft Moss from the Garden Twist Set. I cut it out using Spellbinders Stateley Circles and inked through the die with Dusty Concord. I stamped the image a second time and cut it out using a template as in yesterday's post. I mounted the key on top of the coloured image using 3d Foam. I added a little Cosmic Shimmer Aqua Twinkles and set aside.

 I made a couple of flowers using Spellbinders Labels 24. I stamped a couple of leaves using Heartfelt Creations Bold Leaf Stamp Set using Bundled Sage Distress Ink. I cut them out using Heartfelt Creations Classic Die Set.

I assembled the card as shown adding some White Pearls to 2 of the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent in White around the edges.

Ok, so new to my Amazon Store are -

The new background stamps that I had on my last set of shows

Floral Background
Fern Background
Swirl Background
Leafy Background
The new dress stamps that Nikki had on her shows and the lovely corner stamp are in stock with some other singles here. More handbag stamps should arrive today or tomorrow as I know some of you would still like some. I have also ordered a few more bits and pieces which I will let you know about them when they arrive.

All for now. Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
