In My Thoughts

Hello friends, thanks so much  for stopping by.  It is Friday evening here and the weekend has officially begun - do you have any plans - mine involve die cutting with a friend over coffee in preparation for an 'up and coming workshop'. In the meatime I have another quick share...

My card front has been created using papers from my stash, with two papers 10cm x7.5cm being joined across the centre - a great way to use those left  over pieces. I have cut/embossed the  card front using Spellbinders Nestabilities Scored and Pierced Rectangles Etched Dies and the Platinum Die Cutting Machine and popped up onto a slightly larger pre-cut white card base using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L E-Z Adhesive Runner Ultra.

The sentiment is part of a free gift from a Publication and has been stamped using Imagine Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black.  It has been but using one of the Spellbinders Classic Labels and the Platinum Die Cutting Machine. The die has been used as a Stencil, sponging inside the cutting edges of the die using Imagine Memento Ink in Summer Sky.  This has been popped up onto a white Nestabilities Hemstitch Rectangles Etched Dies Venise Lace by Becca Feeken #3 and #4 using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L 3 D Foam Squares.

I have used Kaisercraft Collectibles, along with Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L 3D Foam Squares, Want2Scrap Rhinestones have been added to either side of the beautiful rose.  I think this is another card where the the colours have been inspired by the change of seasons here in the Southern Hemisphere - autumn/fall is here and we are loving the cooler temps.
