Anniversary Wishes

Hi there, I have a card to share that I made some time ago for a good friend and her husband who were celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary!

I used the Pretty Pink Posh Happy New Year stamps and dies along with the Fireworks stencil.

I placed the stencil over a 5 1/4" x 4" ink blended panel and pressed my embossing ink all over the stencil then I embossed it with gold embossing powder. All the images were coloured with Copic Markers, then I added a vellum circle to soften the background before adding the images with a bit of foam tape. A little Wink of Stella ove the champagne to finish it off.

Thanks for popping in!

Watercolor Blog Hop

Popping in at the very ast minute with a card for the Pretty Pink Posh Watercolor Blog Hop!

First time in my studio in over a week! I am having some serious withdrawl, to go from spending every moment I could creating to closing my eyes when I pass the door has been hard. I have been busy getting things in order so that I can come back in here and do what I love to do.

I have seen so many beautiful cards and I just want to practice practice practice to get better with watercolouring. As soon as I saw Lindsay Amrhein's card and smooshing technique HERE I wanted to try it out. It didn't turn out exactly as I had hoped but smooshing over top of white embossing is so fun. I'm definitely going to try it again.

We have a fabulous new sponsor, Pretty Pink Posh, for the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Pink & Pretty!  The LEAD of this challenge will receive a gift certificate to the Pretty Pink Posh Shop!

You know I was slow to get on to the sequin bandwagon.  It may be because my daughter danced for 11 years and I saw sequins on all her costumes.  Not sure why I resisted because right from the moment that I put that first sequin on a card I was 100% hooked.  Now it seems like a card isn't quite finished without one. Today I used products from the Pretty Pink Shop for my card, Sweetheart  Mix sequins and Gold Heart Confetti.
