Hello hope you're having a great day!
Happy birthday Roy!
This is hubby's card and I just hope he likes it. I find making his cards difficult because he's nearly always here so they have to be made in stages while he's out.
To recreate the card follow the guide below:
(cs) = card stock, ⓡ = retired, (ss) = stamp set
All measurements are in centimetres
Card Stock: Gold Foil 5 x 5 (emboss/die cut leaf)
Merry Merlot 2 pieces 27.9 x 10.5 scored at 14.8 (card base), 9 x 5 (die cut word)
Whisper White 3 pieces 14.2 x 9.9 (first layer) 4.5 x 14.2 (second layer) 1.5 x 14 (sentiments)
Dies: Celebrate You ⓡ, Natures Roots
Embossing Folders: Subtle
Embossing Powder: Gold
Punches: Classic Label
Stamp Sets: Amazing You ⓡ, Crackle Paint, Piece of Cake, Rooted in Nature
Inks: Merry Merlot, Pool Party, VeraMark
Starting with the first layer (cs), the
crackle paint (ss) and
merry merlot ink stamp the background.
Now with the second layer (cs), the
rooted in nature (ss) and both the
merry merlot and
pool party stamp the
leaves using (
second generation) stamping, then emboss using the
subtle folder.
Adhere the second layer across the first, then adhere both to the card base.
Now emboss the
leaf from the
nature's roots dies, and then die cut both the
leaf and the sentiment from the ⓡ
celebrate you dies.
Using the long sentiments strip, stamp the 2 sentiments from the
celebrate you (ss) and the
happy birthday from the
piece of cake (ss) using
versamark, and then heat emboss with the
gold powder.
Cut these sentiments into individual pieces and arrange across the card front, then attach using liquid glue for the
amazing sentiment and dimensional pads for the rest.
Hope you liked today's card and look forward to see you again soon.
I would love to hear what you think of the card, and thank you for visiting.
Back again soon with more cards
