Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
This is a simple little card where the Woodware Memories Stamp (back in stock on my website) does all the work for you. I inked up the centres of the stamps on the stamp (lol that sounds weird - hopefully you get what I mean) with Chic Pumpkin Colour Cloud applied using a Smoothie. I added Chic Aubergine Colour Cloud to the remainder of the stamp and stamped onto Coconut White Card.
Once the ink was dry, I inked around the edges with Chic Aubergine Colour Cloud. I distressed the edges with my scissors (I've just gor hold of a Woodware tool to do that! yay!) and inked a little more with Chic Aubergine Colour Cloud. I matted onto Black Card and then onto a Coconut White Card blank.
I stamped the sentiment from the Woodware Bubble Bloom : Curly Sue Stamp Set onto Coconut White Card using Clear Perfect Medium and embossed with CS Black Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Sue Wilson's Stitched Flags and inked around the edges with Chic Aubergine. I cut the next sized die in the set out of Black Card. I tied a knot in a little piece of Black Satin Ribbon and popped it at the edge of my sentiment.
I finished my card off by adding a 5mm Black Pearl to each corner of my background.

ReplyDeleteMorning Julia, a great card it would be ideal for someone who loves to travel as that was the first thing I thought when I saw it, it looks like the stamps you used to get on your passport my sons was full of them when he was younger.

ReplyDeleteHi Julia,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your woodware shows. I have been a fan of Woodware stamps for many years, the company has offered good value for money on their products. So pleased that a British based company is not going to disappear.
Best wishes

Great masculine card Julia. Lovely idea x
ReplyDeleteGreat card Julia. Thank you for sharing it. Really enjoyed your shows. I also like Woodware stamps and have quite a few. So glad that Creative Expressions have decided to stock them and they will not be disappearing. My granddaughter loves ice skating and I have just managed to get the Woodware ice skate stamp.
ReplyDeletePretty card Julia.
