You are loved

I have not done any stamping this week so I was happy to be able to sit down and do this card last night. I was doing some organizing and had left this Gina K. Designs stamp and die set on my desk, so I used them for my card.

I also used one of my favourite stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called Leaf Lattice.

To begin I first die cut two pieces of Neenah card stock, one with the scallops and the other the coordinating rectangle. On the scallop piece with the stencil I brushed on Twisted Citron ink. I also used the Twisted Citron on the rectangle die cut piece, brushing on a heavy layer of the ink.

For the flowers, using Neenah card stock I stamped the Aster flowers using versamark embossing ink and heat embossed with Lindy's Stamp Gang embossing powder in Hi Maintenance Magenta.

Previously I had the happy accident of finding that Lindy's embossing powder staines the paper a bit, albeit the pink is not as noticeable as some of the other colours. So for these flowers a pale pink colour stayed on the paper which I wanted as I was not colouring the flowers.

I finished up by stamping my sentiment using Versafine Clair ink in Nocturne and adding a few gems and sequins.
