Hello all, Kia here with you today to share this card.
I am giving away my age here, but when I was 16 it was time to pick out my China Pattern that would become my birthday and Christmas gifts for years to come. Then it was the Crystal and then the Sterling Silver. Yes, I still use it all!
That is what I thought about when I saw this die by Picket Fence Studios, so that is where I went.
Using Gina K. Designs white card stock I prepped the card with my Perfect Crafting Pouch as I would be using both distress inks and embossing powders.
I then inked my stamp with Distress Ink in Antique Linen, and proceeded to colour using Copic Markers, which I did while leaving my stamp in my stamping tool.
Once my colouring was done I stamped the image using embossing ink and heat embossed using Gilded Gold fine embossing powder. I then masked off the cup area leaving the handle exposed and applied embossing ink along with the gold embossing powder and heat embossed.
On a separate piece of white cardstock I again prepped the piece with my Perfect Crafting Pouch. I then brushed on and blended Distress Oxide ink in Squeezed Lemonade, then splattered the area with Midas Touch Shimmering Pen.
I attached the piece to my yellow card base.
To complete my card I applied foam squares to the back of the coffee cup and attached it to the my card. I then stamped the sentiment using Distress Ink in Spiced Marmalade several times to darken the colour.
I hope you have enjoyed today’s card. Following I have provided Affiliate Links to the Store for the products that I have used for this card.
