I am back with another card to share this time featuring
Ms. Emma from
Elizabeth Mae's. No rants today as I am super busy. But I promise to come back later and share my winner of the fabulous giveaway. :-)
Our challenge this week is to bling it up! I tried my best ;-) This card uses some natural grass weaved paper I bought a long time ago. Really long time ago. Like not even in this house of 5 five years. I liked the texture and thought it would be cool to use. ***Warning-it's difficult to secure to paper. I have used glue dots, liquid glue, tape runners, and don't really see any of these as better than the others. I have also tried to just secure with brads which did work but sometimes you don't want those elements. Anyhow, that's a strip of
Sass Lass along with a punched floral circle. I punched a blue glitter center for the lovely water she is surrounded in.
What you probably won't see too well is the creme paper has been sprayed with Delphinium (can't find on site)and
Gold mists from
Tattered Angels. Love the sprays but they warp the papers too much for me to use effectively on cards. I have tried wafting in the air. Spraying several inches above to let it fall gently on and it's no the effect I want.
You can't have a bling challenge without bling. So I used large and small rhinestones and a gold thread with metallic strands.
For my sentiment, I punched a bracket from cream cardstock and attached part of a
SRM Sticker. Done!
