Happy Birthday Gorgeous & Stencil

Hello Crafty Friends

Another quick blog post for today as I wanted to share a card that uses a stencil, sponges and ink to make a subtle background. I have used the decorative masks brick wall stencil and lightly sponged some Lemon Lime Twist and Soft Sky Ink in the centre of a Whisper White card front.

The Happy Birthday sentiment from Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set was white heat embossed on black card and then adhered to a layer of Pool Party card. Floral images were stamped in Archival Black ink and again sponged with Lemon Lime Twist and Pool Party inks. Some Pool Party ribbon was attached under the Sentiment panel and the Floral images on top

The card front was added to a layer of Soft Sky card before adhering to a Thick Whisper White card base.

 

Until next time, stay awesome

 

 

Joy of Sets - Blog Challenge!

Hello Crafty Friends

For those visiting my blog for the first time, Welcome from Down Under! I am so excited you could join us on the very first The Joy of Sets Blog Challenge! 

The Joy of Sets Facebook Group page has so many talented members, who can now share their creations with a Fortnightly Blog Challenge. The first challenge theme is the letter F. All you have to do is create a card using any current or retired Stampin'Up! stamp set which has the challenge letter in the stamp sets title. 

My card uses the Falling Flowers stamp set (current Annual Catalogue) water colour pencils, silver heat embossing, a silver doily, Shimmery White, Whisper White and Smoky Slate card stock and a few pearl and rhinestone jewels. The sentiment from Happy Birthday Gorgeous was heat embossed in silver on Black card stock.
