Hope

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I started by randomly stamping the flower cluster from the Justrite Sympathy Vintage 8 & 9 Clear Stamp Set using Dusty Concord Distress Ink. I then ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Velvet Tea Lights Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design and inked around the edges with Dusty Concord. I ran some Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue around the edges and then sprinkled Cosmic Shimmer Iced Snow Glitter Jewels over and put aside to dry.

I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Hope & Love Vintage Labels 8 & 9 Clear Stamp Set onto Coconut White Card using Clear Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Pastel Lilac Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels 9 and inked through the die with Dusty Concord. I stamped the floral frame from the Justrite Sympathy Vintage Labels 8 & 9 Clear Stamp Set onto Mauve Card using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Justrite Vintage Labels 8.

I popped some Cosmic Shimmer Warm White Chalk Paint onto my Craft Sheet and mixed in a little Violet Frost Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Garden Flora Mica Spray Set. I used this with a piece of Cut n Dry Foam to change the colour of a piece of White Crochet Ribbon. Once dry, I made 2 flowers. I cut 2 leaves out of Coconut White Card using Sue Wilson's Petite Vinery Die Set and inked through the die with Dusty Concord.

I assembled the card as shown adding an 8mm White Pearls to the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Cosmic Pearl PVA around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.
