Celebration Pearls and Swirls

Hello friends, welcome and thanks so much for stopping by.  It is a wet Friday here and we are loving it.  From all counts there could be a light dusting of snow on the beautiful Brindabellas which frame our valley - always pretty but we do not often get snow here in Canberra - we just get to admire it on the hills around us.


Today I am sharing a card created using the lovely Spellbinders Gilded Nested Rectangle Die Set Etched Dies The Gilded Age by Becca Feeken as my card base and card front - such a lovely shape.  


I have also used the Floral Splash Cut and Emboss Folder for the card front. This has been run through the Platinum Die Cutting MachineThe lower half has been sponged using Ranger Walnut Stain ink and a Sponge Dauber.   Washi Tape has been added across the centre and narrow lace below it.  The sentiment is from the Shapeabilities Sentiments Etched Dies from the Joyous Celebrations Collection by Sharyn Sowell and has been cut/embossed using gold card stock then glued the Washi Tape.


The beautiful flower is from Little Birdie Crafts Wild Blossoms and popped up next to the sentiment.  Want2Scrap Eternal Swirl - 2 pack has been trimmed and adhered across the top section of the card front.

  1. Hi Linda, another beautiful card. You used your stain inks to great effect to emphasise the texture created by the embossing.
    So glad you stopped by at 613 Avenue Create.
