Another Card I Finished

Wahooo for me.  I managed to finish another card I had started eons ago.  Here is how I did it:

Image:
  1. Stamped Rose Pitcher with Galaxy Gold onto white cardstock twice for pitcher image and 2 more times for roses.  Trimmed pieces and painted as shown.
  2. Painted with Twinks Cherry Sorbet, Mallard Green, Solar Gold and Heavenly White.
  3. Images were cut out with scissors and X-Acto knife.
  4. Embossed on back side and mounted as shown with 3D pop-dots.
  5. Used Spellbinders  Lacy Squares.  One in Neenah Classic Crest Solar White and one in Classic Crest Natural as shown.
  6. Sponged the Natural one in the center with Brilliance Pearlescent Ivy.
  7. Layered the Rose Pitcher on top with 3D pop-dots.  Mounted it on the white die cut.
  8. Stamped left inside panel with Romantic Rose and Galaxy Gold ink.  Did the same for the envelope.  Painted both with twinks.
Background:
  1. Stamped Cover-A-Card Roses with Memento Angel Pink on Natural cardstock with Mega Mount.
  2. Cut to 5"X5" and mounted to White 5.25"X5.25.
Assembly:

  1. Mounted image with dies on background.  Applied ribbon and bow.
  2. Stamped the Love with Memento Cottage Ivy.
  3. Mounted Pearl Stickers on corners and roses with Glossy Accents and added the Maya Road Trinket Heart.
  4. Below is inside and envelope!
Left inside panel and Envelope.  The strips are from the Roses CAC remnants.


Really quick when you had the image sitting there waiting.  :-)  PS, all of the stamps are discontinued, but on EBay it seems, except for Cover-A-Card Roses.

Thanks for stopping by to look and share.  Hope to start hopping to see you soon!

Hello Everyone!


I have truly missed being here, but haven't had much time to think about it.  I want to thank all of you for hanging in there with me.  What I have really missed is seeing your blogs and I hope to change that.

Above is just a quick card.  Here is how quick:
  1. I had stamped and painted the Blooming Pansies on Neenah Classic Crest Natural using StazOn Timber Brown.  I couldn't find the stamp on the Penny Black site, but Addicted to Rubber Stamps has it.
  2. I painted it using Twinkling H2O's Dreamsicle, Cherry Sorbet, Buttercup, Lemon Drop, Olive Vine, Golden Bamboo, and Solar Gold. 
  3. The 'Out Of The Box' technique was created by using a Fiskars Oval template.
  4. A piece white piece of cardstock was put through the Cuttlebug using the largest die from Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles.
  5. Impression Obsession CAC Ticking was stamped on Classic Crest Natural using Memento Angel Pink.  CAC Dotty Circles was stamped with SU Craft Whisper White and embossed with Stampendous White embossing powder.
  6. It was cut and mounted on white cardstock.
  7. Green ribbon from Michael's was arranged as shown.
  8. A stick pin was done with a diamante stick pin and a Czech white glass heart bead.
  9. The inside of the card and envelope were done using remnants from the CAC BG and the Apron Lace Border Punch.
  10. The edge of the envy was punched with the same Apron Lace.
Hope to be back soon and thanks again for stopping by to look and share.  Even more I hope I get to blog hop and see yours!!!
