Thank you

Good morning all and happy Tuesday. Yes it's Jen back again today. I'm giving Jude the week off as she has quite a lot on her plate at the min so I said I would take care of the blog this week. 


Today's card is one I was asked to make by a friend at work. She had finished her placement with us and was moving on, so wanted to send a little card of thanks to her manager.


I stuck with a classic black, white and silver colour scheme and heat embossed a script stamp on to black card with Cosmic Shimmer Fine Detail True White Embossing Powder.


Then I cut it out with a Spellbinder Deckled Edge die and backed it with a larger die cut from black gloss card.


Then I used a flower and leaf die set, cut from silver mirror card.


I used the MFT Stamps Stitched Banner Dies and a black and silver patterned card for the side and mounted it all on to a dark grey card.


Then I added the sentiment heat embossed in white and a few Dazzler gems to finish it off.

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.

Hi there Gorjuss

Happy Tuesday folks.  Hope our UK friends aren't too windswept after the stormy weather the last couple of days.  We were quite lucky in our part of Yorkshire and missed most of the bad stuff.  It did rain and it was blowy but not nearly as bad as down on the South coast.  My London colleagues were nearly all having to work from home today due to a lack of trains!
Anyway today I'm using another of the images I coloured on holiday in Scotland.  This is another Gorjuss image, which I think is called The Fox, but I don't have the packaging so not sure.
I cut the image out with a deckled edge spellbinder and lightly inked the edges with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink.  I then layered two contrasting designs onto a purple card and mounted them on to a 6x6 card blank.  All the edges were distressed with the same Aged Mahogany.
The flowers are more of the large papers blossoms we bought in The Range - one is a creamy white and the other is dusky pink.
The sentiment was created on a Dymo hand held printer, using a white paper cartridge.  I just wanted something very simple and I thought this was just enough.
Hope you like my card.  I'd love you to leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
TTFN Jude xx
