Pixie squares

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -

For the background, I ran a piece of Coconut White Card through the Spellbinders Platinum Machine with the Creative Expressions Dotted Matrix Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design.

I popped the Web Mask onto a piece of Watercolour Card. I sprinkled Teal Wash, Pewter and Firework Burst CS Pixie Powders over and then misted with water. Once dry, I cut four 2" squares and matted them onto Black Card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Sunflowers Vintage Labels Five Stamp Set onto Coconut White Card using Jet Black Archival. I cut it out using Vintage Labels Five Dies and cut a larger die from the same set out of Black Card.

I tied a bow using 2 lengths of White and of Black Satin Ribbon. I added some Silver Metallic Linx and a Craft Consortium Small Pearl Heart Charm.

I assembled the card as shown adding some Small Black Circle Dazzlers and piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  10. Those Pixie powders are creeping up my Wiah List! The "tap and spritz" and the "texture paste and sprinkle" are my favourite techniques
