Dance is a sport

Hi Bloggers.

My Amazon Store is now closed but you can still buy products from me on ebay (link in the top menu). Whenever I have a product that is featured on a card in stock you will see it highlighted in the text. You can click on that to go straight to that product on ebay. I'll be adding more products as soon as I can. If you buy more than one item, please don't pay straight away as I can combine the postage for you to save you some money.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I simply ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Checkerboard PinPoint Embossing Folder and inked around the edges with Dusty Concord Distress Ink. I edged it with Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Star Twinkles and put aside to dry.

I stamped the American Smooth Stamp using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Arctic Black Aurora Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders A2 Curved Matting Basics B and inked through the die with Dusty Concord. I edged it with Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Star Twinkles and put aside to dry. I cut a Spellbinders A2 Fancy Weave out of Mauve Card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Step by Step Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Arctic Black Aurora. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 8 and inked through the die with Dusty Concord. I edged it with Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle Star Twinkles and put aside to dry. I cut a Spellbinders Locking Loops out of Mauve Card.

I made a flower out of White Crochet Ribbon and cut a couple of leaves out of Mauve Card using Sue's Petite Vinery Die Set.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Small Circle Dazzlers to the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Cosmic Pearl around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
