I started this Card with a totally different Colour scheme in mind and it actually changed in appearence as I went along lol!The Card used was Off White and I stamped the images with Brilliance Pearlescent Crimson which appeared quite dark...............To lift the look I then brushed very watery Red Watercolour mixed with Pearl-Ex Jewelz to add sparkle and a hint of Pink....................once dry I lifted some of the pigment off with a damp piece of kitchen towel to add highlights.
I attached my Fiskars Border Punch bits together and tried my hand at a bit of paper sewing (Tend to use the Sewing Machine just for Sewing Cloth.............so this is a 1st for me lol!).............I also added a sewn border to the Roses and the Heart Stamping!
Hearts are attached in layers with Foam Pads so they POP!
Just for finishing touch I added tiny Crystal Gems to the Top Heart Swirls!
The finished Card has a lovely shimmery effect..............I hope you can see this in the photo lol!
Just added a picture so you can see all the things I used!Recipe List:
