I have some brand new Justrite stamps and dies to share with you on today's card.
For the flowers, I simply added Shaded Lilac Distress Marker to the lines drawn by the artist on each petal and then I pulled the colour out with my Water Brush. For the leaves, I did the same thing with Twisted Citron Distress Marker, then I added some Peeled Paint Distress Marker to my Craft Sheet and added it to the leaves using my Water Brush.
I cut the image out using the new Justrite Stitched A2 Banners & Rectangles Die Set (a new favourite!) and inked through the die with CS Phill Martin Chic Viola Colour Cloud using a Smoothie. I cut the next sized die in the set out of Black Card to make the whole thing pop.
For the background, I randomly stamped the smaller lilac blossom flower from the same stamp set over a piece of Coconut White Card using Chic Viola Colour Cloud applied using a Smoothie. I also stamped one of the sentiments in the gaps, again using Chic Viola. I ran the piece through the Spellbinders Platinum Machine with the new Creative Expressions Provincial Lace Embossing Folder and inked around the edges with Chic Viola.
I wrapped a piece of Black Satin Ribbon around the background and added my image using 3d Foam. I tied a bow using 2 lengths of the ribbon and added a Black Vintage Button.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using Jet Black Archival. I cut it out using a die from the new Justrite Vintage Labels 10 Die Set and inked through the die with Chic Viola. I cut the next sized die in the same set out of Black Card.
I assembled the card as shown adding some 8mm Black Pearls and piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.
Justrite stamps are now being made in the UK. Justrite have an alternative manufacturer for their dies. This means that their stamps and dies are being distributed by Creative Expressions at a lower RRP which is good news for eveyone, I think. I will be stocking lots of them on my website as soon as they're available. My first Justrite shows on Hochanda with new stamps and dies is scheduled for 14th March with a One day Special.
