Hi Everybody,Well after the change to darker colored cards over the last few days here I am back to full circle again with .... Pink.
And this one is very pretty with lots of flowers, ribbons and pearls.
I have created a Gilded birdcage and added flowers to it... and the silver foiled card is from Hunkydory
The sentiment is from Crafters Companion and is from the Sentimentals range
I used silver gilding flakes and there is a tutorial to show you how I did it.
The dies I used are listed below but the Birdcage one in the list is not the one I used in the tutorial. That was one I bought at the craft shows and before Spellbinders brought out theirs.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts along with the button in the centre of the bow. They have their usual sparkle from Glitter magic
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

Oh Christina, I knew you couldn't stay away from the pastels. The card is beautiful. I so enjoyed your video, had never though of using the sticky back paper with the flakes, I guess you learn something new everyday. The card in the video is pretty also. Thanks so much for sharing all of your artist talent.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Beautiful card. Looking forward to the video. Would love to have a go at gilding. Finding it reassuring that other followers haven't tried it yet! Thought it was just me with a long list of techniques to try! Thank you for your tutorials, Christina. Jan

I've never seen a card that you have made that I don't like -they're all fab. but must admit- the pink and girly ones are my favourites. Keep up the good work!
