In the Garden of Life

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Great Chain Wire Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design.

I stamped the Justrite Stitched Frame Background using Perfect Medium. I brushed Violet Frost Mica Powder from the Cosmic Shimmer Garden Flora Mica Spray Set over the image and removed the excess with a dry wetwipe.

I stamped the main image from the Justrite Hope & Love 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 the largest die in the Justrite Vintage Labels 8 Die Set.

I tied a bow using White Crochet Ribbon, added a couple of White Pearl Decorative Stick Pins and a White Crystal Sparkler.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
