You Make me Smile

Hi Bloggers.

I'm demoing at Strikes Garden Centre in Wilmslow, Cheshire today 10 till 4. Please pop by if you're in the area.

Here's today's card -

I used the Spellbinders Triple Flip Card Die to cut the card base out of Coconut White Card. The centre panel has the frame stamped from John Lockwood's Flower Frame Elements Stamp Set and the sentiment from his Daisy Corner Elements Stamp Set - both stamped using Plum Archival.

For the centre panel, I stamped some of the smaller elements from John's Scribble Rose Elements and Dogwood Rose Elements using Plum Archival.

For the outside panel, I stamped one of the sentiments from Phill Martin's More Scribbled Sentiments Stamp Set, again using Plum Archival.

I embossed a piece of Coconut White Card using the Creative Expressions Leafy Quad Embossing Folder.

I cut the heart die from the Spellbinders Lovin' Diamonds Die Set out of Coconut White Card. I inked it with Perfect Medium, added Phill Martin's Cosmic Shimmer Decadent Wine Embossing Powder and heat set. I added more Perfect Medium, more powder and heat set again.

I made 4 flowers out of Rich Plum Card using the Spellbinders Marisa's Bouquet Die Set adding an 8mm White Pearl to the centres.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  18. Hi Julia (again haha)
    I have had the most fantastic day watching you demo cards similar to this beautiful one showcased here today, I have spent the whole day watching you, and could have carried on for ages longer too. We all had the most fabulous day with you, thank you for your time, it was wonderful.
    I hope you have a safe and speedy journey home, and that you get to catch 'The Voice' in it's entirety.
    Thank you, once again, and I hope to see you in May at Northwich.
    Lots of love from Patricia xx
