NEW BLOG CHALLENGE AT MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES ~ 47.EMBOSSING WET AND/OR DRY

Hello and welcome...
As the title states, today is a new blog challenge at MAWTT (Moving Along With The Times), and this is my contribution as part of the design team
This really is a quick and easy card to make and  I've also made a video on what I've used and how I've made the card.
I would love if you clicked on the link below then hit the subscribe button on my video page(you'll then be notified of new videos).
Please bear in mind this is my first video.... and boy can you tell so that means, hopefully, plenty room for improvement LOL
Here is the link:


Back to the new challenge!
Sue is hosting Team B's Challenge at MAWTT and the theme is
'Embossing Wet And/Or Dry'
if you click on the link below it will take you to the blog and you'll see the gorgeous cards my 'teamies' have made:
INGREDIENTS:
  • white 8" square card base
  • black and lilac foundation card ~ Creative Expressions (C E)
  • embossing folder 'Regency Frame' ~ Crafter's Companion
  • Frames & Tags 'Alexandra' Collection ~ Sue Wilson/C E
  • sentiment ~ Sweet Wishes/C E
  • Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear PVA Glue ~ C E
There is one difference on the card on the video, I changed the sentiment because I'm sending that card to my cousin for her birthday

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog, I hope my designs have given a little inspiration.
I read all your comments and really appreciate you leaving me a message.

WEDDING CARD COMMISSION NUMBER 2!

Hello and welcome...
I have the second wedding card commission to show you today
I stayed with a white and silver theme for this card
  • the base is a 7" square, top folding
  • a smaller mat of white card
  • then a mat of silver mirri card
  • and finally a smaller mat of white card - I purposely left approximately 1.5" of the base card plain because of all the detail being shown
  • I placed the inner heart die from the Jewelled Heart from the Fillables Range by SW for CE to the left of the card then cut and die cut it
  • I them embossed the card using the cascading hearts embossing folder by SW for CE
  • using both the decorative frame and inner heart die I cut and embossed these onto silver mirri card
  • I glued the heart shaped treat cup into place and secured it further by adding tape around the edges (this does not show)
  • with more silver mirri card I die cut several of the smaller hearts from the same set and placed them into the treat cup and secured them in place by adding a piece of acetate across the back
  • I typed the sentiment then die cut it using the larger of the heart dies from the same set and ran a silver paint pen around the edge prior to adhering to the card and added one silver heart to the top right of the card
  • I used foamarin to make the white roses, they did not look as bright in the flesh as they do on the photo! I also added a few strands of pearls to sit behind the floral arrangement
  • a personal verse was inserted to complete the card
