Good morning. Off on our travels today for a few day, always something to look forward to. Fingers crossed that the weather improves and if it doesnt, no problem, I have packed for all occasions.
Here is another birthday card that I made. I used the Ranunculus Romance Stamp set which has now retired from Stampin' Up! I am sure that a few of us have retired stamps in our crafting space and they still make the prettiest of cards.
The card base is Thick Very Vanilla A4 cut down, I do prefer using the 'thicker' card as it feels a little more substantial.
I stamped a few of the smaller stamps in the set all over a piece of Sahara Sand card, cut it down and then matted it onto an Evening Evergreen piece of card. Both of theses were then adhered to the card base.
The image was stamped onto Shimmery White card, which has sadly retired. I coloured it in with a very light water colour (ink in the stamp lid with a little water and using a paint brush, coloured it in). I then got out the blending brush to gently go around the outline of the stamped image to give it a large shadow effect. This was then stuck on to a piece of Evening Evergreen card, which was adhered on to the main card base.
I added some Linen Thread with a glue dot and the sentiment was put on with dimensionals (3D foam pads). Of course, it has to have to obligatory bee embelishment, well it wouldnt be a card for Sheila without it.
My craft room has been left in a right old mess. The intention was to clean it up yesterday but didnt have such a good day (RA). I am sure it will all be fine until I get back in a couple of days.
