TCTC#2 a blushing valentine using FMS#219 and The Paper Players #278

Just a super quick post to get this card lodged in time with FMS before I go away on a little trip.
Using the colours from TCTC#2
 
And the theme challenge from the paper players.


The colours are the base of the new paper stack Love Blossoms and there are so many great papers in this stack but I settled on these two.
The card central panel is made using the inlaid embossing technique, using blushing bride flowers cut with the new Rose Garden framelits, adhered to the crumb cake and then the entire panel was embossed using the now retired script folder. I added some extra sponging using a dauber for a little more depth. And of course with all things Valentine you need some sparkle. so the Wink of Stella is painted generously onto the blossoms.



the What I love Sale a Bration set was perfect for the leaves and the valentine sentiment.



thanks for looking, Liz

    This is so gorgeous! I love the way you did the inlaid technique and then embossed for the texturing. The Wink of Stella gives the appearance of even more texture. Really beautifully designed and created! Thanks for playing along with my sketch at FMS this week!

Welcome to the CASEing the Catty Sunday night blogshop where we use a section of the Catalogue to inspire this weeks projects.

CTC#48 Who doesn't love new DSP

Welcome back to CASEing the Catty for this round. You may have come from Rachel's beautiful project  or you maybe starting here. There are lots of great posts to visit. This week we are using new Designer Series paper from the Holiday Catalogue - and who doesn't love a pack of new paper? The problem of course is which one to choose.... followed by the problem of actually having to CUT into a pristine pack. ....I know you all know what I mean. I have lots of photos for you today to try and show off some of the designs, but it's not easy to capture and they always look so much better in real life. I have purchased two packs - the Happy Haunting pack on page 47, which I was inspired to get purely from the background piece on the Lighthearted Leaves card on page 44. I don't celebrate Halloween, nor am I usually all that partial to Orange shades, but maybe that's changing! because I really like the designs. The pack has several papers that are specifically...

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car...
