A little bit of sparkle card

Hello again

Here's today's card, unfortunately I couldn't get a good picture that shows how it sparkles but anyway here we go.


Shopping list 

6x6 card blank
Lilac cardstock, I used a satin one 
Phill Martin's background stamp - Leafy
Phill Martin's Scribbled  frame sentiments  Stamps
Lilac organza ribbon
Sue Wilson's complete orange blossom dies
Sue Wilson's laurel leaves dies
Spellbinders die - for topper, sorry I can't find the name but any square die will do
Perfect medium 
Wow glitter embossing powder in lilac aurora
Cosmic  shimmer detail embossing powder - silver
Sparkles - lavender

To start I cut a piece of the lilac cardstock 1/2 cm smaller than the card blank, and a piece of white card 1/2 cm smaller than the lilac card.

Using Phill's background stamp and the perfect medium I stamped the white card all over  and then heat embossed using the lilac aurora embossing powder.  A strip of organza ribbon was then wrapped around the card before attaching it to the card with the lilac card.

The sentiment and frame were stamped onto the square die cut topper and embossed with the cosmic shimmer detail embossing powder. Thus was then layered onto another piece of the lilac card and adde to the card.




Finishing touches- the flowers were cut and double embossed with the same glitter embossing powder, and a couple of the laurel leaves were also cut. They were added to the card bottom left and top right and some lavender sparkles were added to the middle of the card to finish.

Many thanks for having a look.

Happy Crafting

Alison
