Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

As promised, today I'm sharing a card from tomorrow's shows. There are 2 new sentiment stamps in the singles range. They're a bit different and I think really lovely. I hope you like them too. I'm hoping to have some in stock in my Amazon Store by the end of next week.

For the background, I ran a piece of Cobalt Card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Joe's Garden Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design.

I stamped the Thank You stamp onto Perriwinkle Card using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Branching Out. At the emboss stage I added the Couture Creations Endless Embossing Folder (remember to leave the folder open and keep the cutting edge away from the folder). I inked through the die with Faded Jeans Distress Ink.

I made some flowers using Spellbinders Aster Flower Topper. I added some Broken China Distress Stickles to the centre of each of them.

I assembled the card as shown adding a White 8mm Pearl to the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Summer Blue around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

    Well I've been late before but this takes the biscuit as they say!! Have had a day where I've been going here there and everywhere ! Really like today's card and looking forward to tomorrow's shows. As had been said already, do take care in this horrid weather - drove around a few fallen trees today!
    Looking forward to your detailed demos tomorrow. Always learn lots.
    Love Myra
