This week we are so lucky to be sponsored by Andrea over at Annabelle Stamps!!
Andrea has offered a $10 discount voucher at her store!!
My DT card consists of a square pearlised card blank. I then took my IndigoBlu stamp "Love is" and covered it with FlitterGlu, stamped onto some white cardstock and covered in gilding flakes. I then quickly went and washed the FlitterGlu off my stamp (it's really, really sticky!!!). I then rubbed my scoochy foam over to get rid of the excess gilding flakes (back into the tub). I inked around the edges with my copper leafing pen and added two pieces of ribbon. I then added my heart "hand made with love" charm and popped it up with foam pads on the base card.
Please pop over to the A2CAS blog to see the wonderful inspiration provided by the Design Team and we look forward to seeing your creations and visiting your blogs.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Happy crafting.

Hi Karen,
ReplyDeletei never saw anything like that before. Thanks for explaining what you did - the look is great! I LOVE the mix of elegance and some kind of a steampunk-look.
