Celtic Knot - Vintage Birthday

The Celtic Knot Spellbinders® 3D M-Bossabilities™ folder is amazing!!

 

As you an see the dimension is amazing - both the embossing and debossing are so realistic. The white card stock has been embossed using the  Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Machine.

I have sponged the embossed card using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink, along with Delicata™ Pigment Ink in Silvery Shimmer.

The sentiment has been stamped using Memento™ Dye Ink and popped up on Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Squares.

The center Die is from the Fleur de Lis Squares Nestabilities® Decorative Elements and is layered with  a flower from my stash and a recycled button.

Penny Black Inc - Blooming Lovely

I am slowly catching up on Blog posts - with many pressing deadlines for work that I cannot show you until later in the year, I have been burning the candle at both ends to try and keep up with Blog Posts - not doing as well as I hoped, but I am getting there.

 

This card was a first for me - the first time I used a Penny Black Inc  dahlia dance image coloured with Spectrum Noir Pens - I showed the image sometime ago on facebook HERE, but took a little while to get a card created...

The gorgeous embossed and sanded background has been created using the Floral Jewel Spellbinders® 3D M-Bossabilities™ folder and Core'dinations ColorCore Cardstock®  - such a great effect when it is lightly sanded!   I have used the Spellbinders® Grand Calibur® Machine.  

NOTE: The sandwich for Spellbinders 3D M-Bossabilities folders in Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Die Cutting and Embossing Machine (stack from bottom up): B-Pink Embossing Plate, 3D M-Bossabilities Folder with Media Inside and D-Raspberry Adapter Plate. (taken from the Spellbinders Blog)

Lace, Seam binding, a button and Want2Scrap bling.  Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Squares and E-Z Runner have been used on this card.

Memento Luxe™ Mixed Media Pigment Ink in Wedding Dress and then cut out using the Grand Calibur Machine and Labels One Spellbinders® Nestabilities®.  Want2Scrap©
