Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
I started by stamping the image from the Justrite We're Having a Baby Stamp Set onto Milk Card using Watering Can Archival. I coloured it in using Brushed Corduroy and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Markers, pulling the colour out on the bear using a Water Brush. I cut it out using a Justrite Vintage Labels 9 Die and inked through the die with Scattered Straw Distress Ink using a Smoothie. I added a little CS Frosty Dawn Diamond Frost to the balloons using a Quickie Glue Pen.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, again using Watering Can Archival. I cut it out using a die from the Justrite Stitched A2 Banners & Rectangles Die Set and inked through the die with Scattered Straw.
I cut the smallest rectangle die from the Stitched A2 Banners & Rectangles Die Set out of Primrose Card. At the emboss stage, I added the Circuit Board Mask. I cut the largest rectangle die out of Milk Card.
I tied a bow using 2 lengths of Antique White Satin Ribbon and added a Gold Dazzler.
One of the comments yesterday asked how many paper pads I have used - well, I'm not even half way through the Wild Rose or the English Garden Paper Pads. They really do go a long way!
Poor Phill suffered a really bad migraine yesterday and was unable to do his last 2 shows of his One day Special. Hopefully, he will be able to get some rest and shake it off before going to Ally Pally tomorrow afternoon. Fingers crossed!
Thanks for stopping by.
