Relax

Hi Bloggers.

I've discounted some more items in my Amazon Store over the weekend as part of my August sale. Please click on the link in the menu above to go straight to my store. Prices start at 49p!

I have also started listing some more packs of sample cards on ebay. This time I'm donating 50% of the money raised to Macmillan Cancer Support who do a fantastic job supporting families who's lives have been affected by cancer. Please click on the ebay link in the menu above to go and have a look. There'll be more packs added over the next few days. Thank You in advance for your support.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I ran a piece of Sand Card through the Grand Calibur with the Checkerboard PinPoint Embossing Folder. I popped a little Gold Cosmic Shimmer Shimmer Paint onto my Craft Sheet. I picked some up onto a piece of Cut n Dry Foam and rubbed it over the embossed surface.

I cut 4 corners out of Vintage Gold Card using Sue's Border, Corner and Tag Die Set from the Spanish Collection.

I stamped the frame from the Justrite Rose Bouquet Stamp Set onto Sand Card using Perfect Medium and added Cosmic Shimmer Gold Detail Embossing Powder (I did not heat set at this point). I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in the same way and heat set the lot. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels 3 Dies.

I cut 2 Spellbinders Ornate Squares out of Vintage Gold Card. I offset them and added then behind the image panel.

I assembled the card as shown adding some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Olympic Gold around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by,

Julia.

  21. Hi Julia
    Another stunning card today. The centre piece reminds me of a snowflake so this would make a lovely Christmas if you didn't have any snowflakes but have this die. I love how this card is put together as well.
