Keep in Touch

Hi Bloggers.

We've arrived safely in Northallerton. We're demoing at Strikes Garden Centre today. If you're coming to the demos - get there as early as possible. Big Surprise!! That's all I'm saying! Hope to see some of you there.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I inked through the Openwork Mask with Stonewashed Adirondack Dye Ink using Cut n Dry Foam. I moved the mask alongto extend the design which is easy as it's a repeating pattern. I then went around the edges with Sky Blush Cosmic Shimmer Twinkles and put aside to dry.

I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Pansies in Spring Stamp Set using Cobalt Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels 7 Dies and inked through the die with Stonewashed Ink. I cut a larger Labels 7 and again inked through the die.

I cut Sue's Cordoba Die from the Spanish Collection out of Cobalt Card.

I stamped 3 pansies from the same stamp set, using Cobalt Archival and embossed with Clear Powder. I cut them out using scissors. I think I may have stuck them on the card upside down but I don't think it matters. They look like trumpets to me!

I tied a bow using Blue/Ivory Striped Grosgrain and added a Silver Vintage Button.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
