You Look 'Scent'sational

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I stamped the Justrite Rose Garden Background twice using Antique Linen Distress Ink. I ran some Icicle Stickles around the edges and put aside to dry.

I stamped the Merano Glass Perfume Bottle using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Arctic Black Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 29.

I stamped the sentiment that comes with the Merano Glass, again using Perfect Medium and embossed with Arctic Black Aurora. I cut it out using a die from the Spellbinders 5 x 7 Elegant Labels 4 Die Set.

I tied a bow using Black/Ivory Striped Grosgrain. I pressed a Metal Dazzler Setting into Perfect Medium, added Arctic Black Aurora, tapped off the excess and heat set. I added a Clear Sparkler to the centre.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
