Hi Bloggers.
In case you missed it, Sue's dies are now back in stock in my Amazon Store. You can see them here.
Here's today's card -
For the background, I used a paper from the Teresa Collins 8 x 8 Paper Pad. I did stamp the Scented Corner in the right hand corners using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink but it didn't really show up as the stamp has very fine lines.
I stamped the Art Deco Delight using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Lava Black Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany. I cut a frame out of Rich Red Card, again using Radiant Rectangles.
I stamped the sentiment that comes with the image, again using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Lava Black Aurora. I cut it out using another Radiant Rectangles die and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany.
I tied a bow using Black/Ivory Striped Grosgrain Ribbon. I made a flower using Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch Dies. I added a Black 8mm Pearl to the centre and surrounded it with Silver Stickles.
I assembled the card as shown adding a Black 8mm Pearl in each corner and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Silver Lustre Pearlescent PVA around the edges.
I'll be back tomorrow with a sneak peek from Saturday's shows.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.

ReplyDeleteMorning Julia, As 'baconbits' says above, this sentiment is so right for this card - 'Simply Fabulous'. This could have been a card for tomorrow, Valentine's Day, with the black/red/white colour combo, very saucy and romantic.

Hi Julia,
ReplyDeleteYou've got me thinking with this card! Now that in itself is quite an achievement! I'm afraid I tend to use soft pastel colours, white on white and if I'm being brave some black goes in!! Now I'm actually really thinking about introducing a touch of red!
Thanks once again for a lovely card and taking me outside my comfort zone! Look forward to sneaky peek and Saturday's Shows!
Safe travel.
Love Myra
Good morning Julia today's card is gorgeous I just love the black and red together. Have a good day. Love Jackie
