Congratulations
Hi bloggers! I embossed a piece of white card with the Padded Quilt embossing folder for texture in the background. I cut the outer die from the Stained Glass harvest die set in black. I cut the middle die in white and layered it up. I cut the Harvest die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card. I used the white card to colour the image using markers. I covered it with a piece of sticky adhesive sheet, peeled the backing paper off and aligned the black die cut on top. I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed sticky areas. I trimmed the sticky sheet even with the die then added it to the centre of the card. I cut the Congratulations in black and glued it to a white shadow backing piece and attached it below the focal element. I cut two pieces of black card in long strips, then added a thinner white strip and a thinner orange strip to each and glued them down the sides of the card. I used small white flatback pearls on the embossing folder as accents. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

ReplyDeleteHi Sue. What a perfect card for the Autumn (or Fall) season. I do love the padded quilt embossing folder which seemed to have passed me by when it was launched and now I can't find it for sale anywhere. Is there such a thing as embossing folder envy?
ReplyDeleteLisbeth
So beautiful autumnal card, love the sparkling pumpkins and the embossing!
ReplyDeleteThe Stained Glass Harvest Die is so precious. Beautiful card.
