Sympathy Shells

I have a very quick card for you today using one of the fabulous 3D M-Bossabilities from Spellbinders.

I have run the Shell Beauty Spellbinders® 3D M-Bossabilities™ folder through the Grand Calibur® Die cutting and Embossing Machine

using white card.

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.'

The embossed card has been sponged using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Peanut Brittle, Toffee Crunch and Brilliance™ Pigment Ink in Pearlescent Chocolate. Delicata™ Pigment Ink in Golden Glitz has been added to some areas of the embossing to highlight them and add that pretty shimmer.

The bling is Want2Scrap Beautiful Bling Borders by Nina Brackett - Endless Waves.  I have used
Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Square and E-Z Runner on this card.  The sentiment is from SRM Stickers

Dear Friend

Today's card has a vintage/nostalgic feel - my favourite style.

The image is from Graphic 45 and the background paper is from Authentique Paper.

 I have used the negative die from the Classic Ovals LG Spellbinders® Nestabilities to create a frame.  It has been stamped using a script image - using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Peanut Brittle.

The music sheet has been cut/emboss using the Hearts One Spellbinders® Media Mixáge™ and the Artisan X-plorer™ Machine.

The beautiful swirl and gorgeous paper rose are from Want2Scrap.  Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Squares and E-Z Runner have been used on this card.

Hello Blog Friends, welcome to my new followers, I appreciate you stopping by and following my Blog - I hope I am able to inspire you and even introduce you to some products you have not yet tried!!

Today's card started with some sponging - then a little bit more - using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Desert Sand and Summer Sky. 

Memento Luxe™ Mixed Media Pigment Ink in Wedding Dress has also been used to highlight.

The Creative Cogs Spellbinders® 3D M-Bossabilities™ folder has been embossed using the   
Spellbinders 3D M-Bossabilities™ folder.  

 

The flower is from a RAK - it would have to have been 3-4 years ago (head hung in shame), but it works perfectly on this card.  The flourishes are created using the  IMAGINE Crafts® Pico Embellisher.  The sentiment is from JustRite® Papercraft, the bling is from  Want2Scrap bling.  Scrapbook by Adhesives by 3L - 3D Foam Squares and E-Z Runner have been used on this card.

So Worth the Wait

Sometimes it is good to 'change the pace' a bit with out creating - shabby vintage is my 'signature' style, but I am really enjoying moving out of the 'comfort zone' every now and then - and this is one of those times...

The cardstock for the image and sentiment has been cut/embossed using A2 Distressed Edges  Spellbinders® Nestabilities® Card Creator and the Spellbinder Grand Calibur.  I have used IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Peanut Brittle and Toffee Crunch  for the script and sponging.

The 'rings' have been created using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink in Espresso Truffle and the sentiment stamped using Tuxedo Black.
