Good Sunday morning to all! Just a quick reminder that I am still demonstrating at Ally Pally all day today so the drawings for the card giveaway and the comment game will not be posted until tomorrow! For today's card, I have a very unisex sort of card. I started with a piece of sand card and stamped the background with a swirl stamp inked with clear perfect medium. I dusted it with Angel Gold mica powder for a soft shimmer. For the next layer, I used the Beaded Fanfare embossing folder and embossed a piece of taupe card. I used the negative side of the embossing and rubbed it with Snow Cap Adirondack pigment ink to lighten all the raised areas for a faux letterpress effect. Next I cut a thin frame out of the larger cutting dies of the Classic Adorned Squares and the Ornate Pierced Squares out of taupe card. I used the Classic Adorned Square die again to create an aperture. I glued my thin frame to it, then cut the slightly larger edge on the paper cutter, squaring the corners to match. I used a darker shade of tan and cut the decorative inside area of the Classic Adorned square and recessed it into the frame. I stamped my sentiment and cut it in a diamond orientation and added a taupe mat behind it. I completed the card by adding a pierced milk mat, a thin taupe mat and a final milk mat. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. Hope to see you at Ally Pally today! All for now, Sue x
