Hi Bloggers.
I do not have shows today, there was an error in the scheduling on the Creative Expressions News Blog. My next shows on on Tuesday 1st July.
Here's today's card -
The background for this one took a while as I had to wait for each corner to dry before adding another. For each corner, I spread some Penny Copper Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Texture Paste through one of the elements in the Decorative Elements Mask. Once all the corners were completed and dry, I inked around the edges with Caramel Adirondack Dye Ink.
I stamped the image from the Justrite Sunflower Vintage Labels Five Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels Five dies and inked through the die with Caramel Ink. I coloured in using Caramel, Butterscotch and Pesto Adirondack Dye Inks. I cut a Couture Creations Elegant Motif out of Milk Card and inked through the die with Caramel Ink.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, again using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Clear Powder. I cut it out using a Justrite Vintage Label & Banner Die and inked through the die with Caramel Ink.
I tied a bow using Cream Crochet Ribbon and added a Vintage Black Button.
I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.

Oh Julia this is so beautiful. Just love the corners. My texture paste arrived yesterday and as it´s raining here today I think a day in my craft room is needed. Actually some housework is needed as well but I'll ignore it.

ReplyDeleteHi Julia,
ReplyDeleteFirstly - sorry although I looked at yesterday's card and thought how lovely it was I was interrupted and forgot to go back and leave a post! I loved it - the blue and white - your beautiful background - thanks for clear instructions on how to do it - and of course my favourite ribbon!
Today's card is lovely too - I love the texture paste - it seems to work even for me!
I really thought I'd lift the mask off to a mess but no it works every time.
Thanks Julia for all your inspiration. Will look forward to seeing you on screen with Sue too. That should be fun!
Love Myra
Beautiful card. Love the colours used. Helen
