Well, we're back from our adventures on the high seas and trying to get back to normal...whatever that is! I'm just happy to have all the unpacking and washing done!!
This week I'm using the Decadent Damask Birthday Verses Stamps designed by Phill Martin for Creative Expressions. There are 4 large message stamps in the set, all with lovely birthday messages.
Anyway, let's get on with making a card!
Stamp the message with Black Archival Ink onto Coconut White Card. Heat emboss with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Powder.
Tear around the edges, then add Cosmic Shimmer Vintage Plum Gilding Wax to the torn areas.
Stamp a row of the border from the stamp set with Black Archival Ink.
Glue onto the card blank.
Add circles of Gilding Wax to the reverse side of the stamped image. I've used Vintage Plum, Golden Lilac and Summer Blue. Trim to size.
Glue onto the card with Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue.
Add the message with 3d foam pads.
Colour a 2nd piece of vellum with the same colour waxes.
Cut out flower shapes with the Finishing Touches Classic Rose Dies.
Use a brad to hold the flowers together then scrumple the flowers to give a bit of texture.
Die cut the Faux Quilled Leaves from Coconut White Card and glue into place. Add the flowers with 3d foam pads.
I wasn't sure if the waxes would work on Vellum but they look gorgeous.
As always, everything I've used is from Creative Expressions.
That just leaves me to say a big thank you for stopping by and leaving comments, they're much appreciated.
So until next time, have a happy, crafty week!

Hi Pam, glad you had a great time on you holiday, I love this card and I need to sit later and try out the gilding wax and paper as it is stunning. Running very late but will try it out later. Many thanks X Ros
