Hi Bloggers.

Glad you liked the new Taylored Expressions Stamps. I thought this card as appropriate for today -

I started by arranging the 4 stamps from the Taylored Expressions Sunflower Wreath Stamp Set on my acrylic block. I wanted to use the Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles Two Die Set so made sure the arrangement fitted into the largest but one die. I stamped it first onto copy paper to make sure my wording was straight and when happy stamped it onto Milk Card using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles Two and inked through the die with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink.

I cut the largest die in the set out of Teal Card.

I popped a little Peacock Cosmic Shimmer Shimmer Paint onto my Craft Sheet and picked some up onto a piece of Natural Sponge which I purchased from the local Range Store. I used this to create the pattern on the background. This is a great technique with the paint and can be done with several colours as I showed in the first demo at 9am yesterday (I will share that card soon).

I assembled the card as shown adding some Cream Pearls in the corners and some dots of  Cosmic Shimmer Vanilla PVA around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.
