Get Well Soon

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the main background, I ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Endless Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Faded Jeans Distress Ink.

I stamped the Justrite Filigree Leaves Background using Perfect Medium. I dusted Ultramarine, Turquoise Sky and Sea Rose Sparkle Pigments from the Cosmic Shimmer Rainbow Sparkle Pigments Set.

I masked off the bottom of the Get Well Soon Stamp and inked the remainder up using Perfect Medium. I removed the mask (always a good idea!) and stamped it. I embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Silver Shine Detail Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Nobel Rectangles and inked through the die with Faded Jeans. I cut a Spellbinders Pearl Effects out of Perriwinkle Card.

I tied a bow using White Crochet Ribbon. I pressed a Cameo Setting into Perfect Medium, added Cosmic Shimmer Silver Shine Detail Embossing Powder and heat set. I added a cameo.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  2. Hi Julia, a really stunning card, love the layout. These stamps are so versatile, in that you don't need to use the whole stamp. I laughed when I read about removing the mask, it is a mistake you only make once. Have a great day. Bx

  12. Morning Julia, I'm loving this card, especially the background, and then the filigree leaves stamping and sparkle pigments atop, this looks stunning. I also love the cameo settings and the cameo, really beautiful.
    I would just like to tell you that I, at last, managed to elongate my Tied Together embossing folder yesterday, yippeeeeeee, when I was doing it my 'filing cabinet' in my brain was frantically trying to remember what you had said to do hahaha, and I managed it, Thank You for all the tips and techniques you give to us.
    Lots of love from Patricia xx
