All My Love

Hi again. The second post of the day. Back to challenges then!

Here is a romantic card for 2 challenges which both had exactly the same theme - Pearls and Lace:
Totally Papercrafts #56
Sentimental Sundays #45

The image and the script are from some of the new stamps from Stamp Addicts. I love the main image, it is gorgeous. She was stamped with brown Stazon, cut out with a Nestabilitiy and the edges tinted with Broken China Distress ink. The script was stamped with the same ink on white glossy card, cut out with another Nestie and tinted in the same way. The large mat was cut out with yet another Nesty. This blue card is such a lovely dark shade and is pearlescent.

The base card is A6 in size. The corners were cut with a Martha Stewart punch. The card was edged with Broken China ink. The lace was applied with D-S tape.

The sentiment, an Elusive Images stamp, was stamped onto the same coloured card as the base card in Brown Stazon. It was trimmed to size and edged with distress ink.

The card was assembled with foam pads and D-S tape and then the pearls were added to the various layers and the sentiment.
