Just For You

Products Used:
HCPC 3563 PostCard PreCut Set
HCD 740 Sweet Juliet Die
HCD 729 Decorative Blossom Corner Die

Project Instructions:
Other products: A2 Locking Loops, Tapestry embossing folder, Tim Holtz distress inks – a range of pinks and greens, Cosmic Shimmer – Pearlescent Mica Powder, Versafine Ink - Vintage Sepia, Cream and dusky pink card stock, gold shimmer card or paper, Creative Expressions decorative swirl pearls and flat pearls, Pink twine, pale pink ribbon, Cosmic Shimmer polished glitter- Golden Sand, Cosmic Shimmer Gilding Wax – Enchanted Gold, Cream decorative lace
Instructions: Make a 7" x 7" card base and adhere dusky pink card to the front. Cut a piece of cream card 6 1/2" square and put through the die cutting machine with the embossing folder. Using your finger, lightly go over the embossed area with the gilding wax. Adhere to the front of the card. Stamp the post card image onto some cream card, colour with distress inks, distress the edges a little and cut out. Die cut out the A2 Locking Loops onto dusky pink card. Die cut the smallest of the corners out, again onto dusky pink card. Matte the postcard onto the A2 locking loops, adhere the Blossom Corner from behind and adhere about 1/2" from the top of the card centrally (adhere a length of lace just below where the post card will sit as in picture). Die cut 3 large and 3 small Sweet Juliet Flowers. Colour them in using shades of pink to coordinate with the post card and make them up. Die cut 3 of the leaves, cut them in half. Cut out a sentiment from the Antiquity paper. Add 3 lengths of pink twine adhering it at the right hand side of the card where the sentiment will be as in picture. Adhere the flowers and leaves in a cluster at the bottom left of the postcard adding a bow under the bottom flower made of pale pink ribbon and twine. Adhere the sentiment adding 2 leaves to the top left hand side. Using the Mica Powder and water, make Mica Powder paint and add some to the post card, flowers and leaves to give a subtle shimmer. Add a pearl swirl to the top left of the sentiment. To finish add some glitter around the outer edge of the cream embossed card and the outer edge of the post card using a glue pen – You may find it easier to do this as you make up the card, however make sure it is dry before going on to the next step.

I wanted to share a scrapbook layout with you today.

Items I have Used:

A quick run down on how I have created my layout:

• Choose your paper and distress the edges using a Tim Holtz distressing tool or something similar and ink with Milled Lavender Distress Ink. Using the Vintage Mist and Bundled Sage distress ink mask over the Bird Cage and Bird mask towards the top left of your paper.
• Cut a piece of co-ordinating paper 6" square and again distress the edges and ink. and adhere to your main layout. (Die cut the Fancy Lattice and adhere just underneath the square panel at an angle)
• Die cut the largest square from the Adorning Squares die set in pale lilac card and cut your photo so that it sits just in side. Use a little Milled Lavender around the edges of your photo. Adhere these to the main paper.
• Add 2 strips of lace to the bottom of the square panel.
•  Die cut:
• The post, hanger and decorative ornament from the Decorative Metal Fixtures die set, the decorative lace heart from the Timeless Amour die set, 2x birds ant the small bird cage from the Bird Sanctuary die set, 3x small butterflies from the Jewel Flowers and Flourishes die set, Wrought Iron gate from the Die D-Lites die set, about 8x leaves from the Heartfelt Creations Open Leaf die set, about 3x or 4x flourish leaves from the Heartfelt Creations Gift Ensemble die set and an assortment of flowers from the Bitty Blossoms die set and Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch.
• Heat emboss the post and hanger, decorative heart, decorative ornaments and 3x cork hearts using Cosmic Shimmer Vintage Golden White embossing powder.
• Cut out a sentiment from the Heartfelt Creations Posy Patch Collection papers and distress and ink the edges.
• Make up your flowers as you require them to sit on your page - I made 2x lge, 7x med, and about 6x small ones from the Posy dies and 3x small and 2 medium from the Bitty Blossom die set. Spritz the flowers with the Vintage Mist.
• You are now ready to adhere all of your elements in place.
• Finally add the Dazzlers and pearls to your layout.

 

A Beautiful You

Hello to you all x

I have used Maja Design - Vintage Spring basics to create my card today. Using it both on the lower background paper and for my flowers:

 

• I have taken a 6.5"x6.5" card blank. Cut a piece of shimmer pale blue card 6 1/4" square. The stamp that I have used for the background is a small fancy flourish from JustRite Stamp Kindness collection. I have Heat embossed using Cosmic Shimmer Artic Lake Lustre embossing powder. I have distressed the edges just a little with a Tim Holtz distress tool and adhered it to my card base.
• Take a piece of patterned paper measuring about 3"x6 1/4", distress the edges a little and adhere to the bottom half of the card. I have added some lace and ribbon across the top edge of the patterned paper, which to be honest you can only just about see.
• The Sentiment is Heartfelt Creations -Bold Vintage Floret Backgound stamp set. I have stamped and embossed using the  Artic Lake Lustre embossing powder on to some of the shimmer pale blue card and die cut out using the 2nd from largest die from Spellbinder Decorative Labels Twenty-Eight. Next I have layered this onto some white shimmer card cut out using Spellbinder Labels Twenty-Eight. I have then layered these onto the largest die from the Decorative Labels Twenty-Eight cut out using some more papers from Maja Design - Vintage Spring Basics.
• The large flowers I have made are Spellbinder Spiral Blossom and the smaller ones are Bitty Blossom. I have die cut them out onto the Maja Design patterned paper and added pearls to the centre.

• The foliage are Heartfelt Creations Open Leaf die and stamped with the co-ordinating Open Leaf Stamp set. I have finished off the left hand side flower cluster by adding an organza bow with a pearl in the centre.
• To finish of the card I have added some pearl flourishes, flat backed pearls around the sentiment and some Cosmic Shimmer White Ice Glitter Jewels around the outer edge of the card.

 I hope all have nice day x
