Moments

Hello bloggers!  I ran across this clean and simple card that never had its day on the blog so I thought I would share it.  It is actually the first card that I did using the Crystal Tints!  I started by cutting the Petite Petal Striplet die in white and gluing it onto a piece of clear acetate that was larger than the size of it (it is nice to use the extra areas to start the tints off to get rid of the bubbles or to mix colours if desired).  Next I used the Rose Quartz and the Lime Peridot crystal tints to fill in the design.  I allowed it to dry for about ten minutes then added another coat and set it aside to dry thoroughly.  I cut one more of the striplets and glued it over the top to mask any areas where the tint hit the die cut. I cut the backing with a sticky adhesive sheet on it, then coated it with Iced Flake.  I cut the acetate to the edge of the design, then glued the iced flake backing behind it.  I cut a piece of coconut white card and stamped my sentiment in black in the lower corner area.  I then embossed it using the Provencale Lace embossing folder.  I added the striplet to the left with foam.  The card was completed with white on white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x
