Hi Bloggers.
Here's today's card -
I cut a piece of Coconut White Card using a die from Sue Wilson's Scalloped Lattice Frames Set B. I misted it with water and then sprinkled a CS Aubergine Dream Pixie Powder over. Once dry, I sprinkled some Pixie Powder onto a piece of copy paper. I rubbed the firework image from the Creative Expressions Pack Up Your Troubles Stamp Set designed by Danny Mcintosh into the powder. I misted the stamp with water and stamped onto my background. I repeated this 3 more times.
I stamped a couple of the word stamps from the same set using CS Chic Aubergine Colour Cloud applying the ink with a Smoothie. I also edged the background with Chic Aubergine.
I dusted with an Anti-Static Bag and stamped the plane and the sentiment from the same stamp set using Clear Perfect Medium and embossed with CS Black Detail Embossing Powder.
I cut a mat out of Black Card using the next sized die in the set and popped onto a Coconut White Card blank.

Hi Julia. What a good idea combining the pixie powdered background with the firework stamp. I always like to try and guess how you've created your backgrounds before I read your instructions. I didn't get this one. SueL x

Hi Julia
ReplyDeleteBrilliant card, nice one for the gents. My Grandad was RAF so he'd have loved it.
Just wanted to say thank you too, parcel got from MK to Suffolk in a day. Hoping the junior plates will be less effort through my G.C.and so help get me being crafty again. A bargain too so really pleased with them 😆
Hugs, T x
