In the Pink
I made this card for a special friend. I tried to duplicate a technique that Sue Wilson uses on her cards where she uses Cosmic Shimmer glue dots as a border. Here is a link to how she does her technique. http://particraft.blogspot.com/p/hi-guys-i-love-this-stamp-and-i-think-i.html I tried this technique using liquid pearls, but my hands were not steady enough so I used flat-baked pearls in different sizes. I used white glitter paper behind the Spellbinder die. The other dies are also Spellbinders. I am not satisfied with the the embellishments so I will probably change that out some before I need to send the card. It needs something taller along the side. A feather or a stickpin might work. The pink is a prettier color in person and there is tons of dimension that does not show on the picture. . The sentiment is from Gina K Designs. I will enter this in Lee's n the Pink at Mod Squad.http://modsquadchallenge.blogspot.com/
