Pansies in Blue

Hi Bloggers.


Here's today's card -

A messy background on this one. I started by inking through the Damask Mask with Stonewashed Adirondack Dye Ink using Cut n Dry Foam. Then I stamped a few single pansies from the Justrite Pansies in Spring Stamp Set, using Stonewashed Ink. With the stamp in my hand, I randomly stamped the Creative Expressions Fern Fronds A6 Stamp, again with the Stonewashed Ink. I made sure the ink was dry and ran it through the Grand Calibur with Sue's Quilted Flower Embossing Folder. I inked around the edges with Stonewashed Ink.

I stamped the main image from the Pansies in Spring Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White Detail Embossing Powder.  I cut it out using Spellbinders Captivating Squares and inked through the die with Stonewashed Ink. I stamped the image twice more, as before. I cut the main 3 flower heads out of 1 image and just the central 1 out of the other image. I shaped them and added them on top of the original image with a little glue gel.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, using Perfect Medium and embossed with True White Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Tag Dies and inked through the die with Stonewashed Ink.

I tied a bow using Blue/White Striped Grosgrain and added a White Crystal Sparkler.

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

Thanks for stopping by.
