Hi Everybody,
Do you have those moments when you need to make a card and you can't think what to do? This pretty card is so easy to put together and takes no time at all. I have used the large texture plate from Spellbinders and coupled it with an embossing folder. Very quick, very easy and very pretty too.
Spellbinders Supplies:
- S6-038 Lace and Frills texture Plate
- S2-139 Sentiments Three
- SCI-013 Cotton Candy
- EL-015 Bricks and Bark Embossing Folder
Other Supplies:
Instructions:
From the outer square #2 cut two panels in white for your base card and create a hinged card
Hand cut a slightly smaller panel in silver and another slightly smaller still in pink and emboss the top pink layer
Cut another piece of white card slightly smaller than the pink layer and this is the piece we are going to use.
Load a brayer with the Cotton Candy Ink and roll it over the texture plate ensuring that it is all covered.
Lay the card flat on top of the plate and pass it though the Grand Calibur as an embossing sandwich
Then quickly remove the card from the plate and while the ink is still wet sprinkle it with embossing powder and heat
The powder will stick to the wet ink and give you a lovely effect. I used a sparkly powder.
With some sharp scissors, or your craft knife, carefully trim around the pattern on one side and then trim again to fit the pink embossed panel from the previous step
Leave as much depth as you prefer to allow the embossed panel to show
Wrap these layers with ribbon and lace and place foam tape on the back to give dimension
Add to the silver card and the base card
Create your bow and add to the front in the position you like and add in flowers to the knot. Add the sentiment of your choice and there you have a very pretty card for you to send with love.
Designers Tip:
Change the color and leave the panel complete for another look to this card.
Or if you are really pushed for time simply use the texture plate to emboss the silver card and miss out the other steps.
Your card will be just as lovely whichever you decide to do.
I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial
More tomorrow ...
