GDT for Chocolate Baroque

Good Morning Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

How are you all Today? I am well and waiting for Kath for our usual crafty day.

Today I am sharing my second GDT for Chocolate Baroque.

Recipe

1. Base card is cut out using Spellbinder Grande Scalloped Circle Die

2. The first layer is pale yellow card cut out with Spellbinder Grande Circle Die I then inked around the edges with Dew Drop Brilliance Cosmic Copper ink

3. The background is made by using shaving foam and spraying Cosmic Shimmer Mica mists into the foam and placing the card onto the foam then lifting off, removing the foam which reveals the pattern.  

4. I stamped the image using Versafine Vintage Sepia and embossed with embossing powder, this was then cut out with scalloped circle die and the edges inked with Cosmic Copper ink. I coloured some of the shapes with Spica in brown and yellow.

5. To finish off I added the ticket Dream.

Girls that Lunch!

Good Morning Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

A late start for me this morning, had a lie in for a change, I was so tired.  I think all the excitement from last week caught up with me.  We apparently had quite a noisy thunderstorm here last night but I slept right through it. LOL!

How has your week been? A busy but enjoyable one here.

Today I am sharing a vintage card with you, well I hope it is!

Recipe

1. Cream square card which I have scored the front of the card to create an Easel card.

2. The base of the card I have matted and layered Kraft card with papers from Crafter's Companion Vintage Floral Collection, I wrapped ribbon around the layers before adhering to base to act as a stopper and added a bow.

3. The front of the card I matted and layered Kraft card and the papers from the above mentioned paper pack. The image is from Scribble and Scrap which I have cut out and inked the edges then adhered to card with foam pads.

4. I added cream lace across the bottom with a stem of beads and 3 roses.

5. To finish off I added a tag and Tattered Lace sentiment die Happy Birthday in gold with matching ribbon from the base. Six gold pearls to complete my card

Natalie - Julie Nutting Prima Doll

Good Morning Crafty Friends, Followers and Visitors

Second post again this morning, please click here to view my first post.

As I said on Wednesday I am so in love this these Prima Dolls I ordered 4 more from Cuddly Buddly in their sale.

I have made another door hanger this time using Natalie.

I first painted the door hanger with cream acrylic paint and then using Prima Time Travellers papers covered the back and front of the hanger using PVA glue. To the top corners I have added metallic corners.

I stamped Natalie onto white Supersmooth and paper pieced using paper in my stash, coloured her hair and skin with Spectrum Noirs.

To the bottom corner I added a pale blue feather, one of my own crocheted doilies and a shabby chic flower I made with fabric and lace and inked over lightly with DI weathered wood. I added cream pearl stems. The tag is from the Prima Paper Pack which I have added the key charm with a brad. To finish off I added a Tim Holtz word addage ticket.
