Card with globe and Eiffel-tower

One of my friends has seen the text, " together is the best place to be" on my robot card. And I was asked to make a card with the same text for her husband for their wedding anniversary. So after a lot of consultations with my friend I made this card.

For the edge of the second layer and for the globe, I used Liquid Platinum embossing powder from Ranger.

The Eiffel tower was heat embossed with Ranger Vintage Photo (Rust Effect) embossing powder. I repeated the process, so in the end, there are two layers of embossing powder on the Eiffel tower.

Behind the globe, I put a kraft paper which was inked first with Hickory Smoke, then with Black Soot.

I glued the globe on this inked kraft paper then I cut off the excess.

The background paper of the first layer and the little vintage New York picture were in the Graphic 45 Cityscape 8x8" paper pad.

The hearts were cut out from watercolour paper with the Sizzix Bigz Heartfelt die and I added diluted acrylic paints to the surface then spritzed with more water. When it was dry I smeared Antique Linen ink onto the surface.

I inked the edges of the hearts, the text and the New York picture with Vintage Photo and Frayed Burlap.

What else? Oh yes, I smeared a little Titan Buff DecoArt Media paint to the edges of the Graphic 45 paper.

The first layer and the second layer were mounted on a blue card base, then I attached all the other elements, one by one.

I hope you like it!!! Thank you for stopping by!!!

Card for wedding anniversary with Tim Holtz crazy birds

There is a lovely English folk song: Lavender blue, dilly, dilly, Lavender green, When I am king, dilly, dilly, You shall be queen..."

I like this song and when I wanted to make something for our wedding anniversary I just knew that I would use this text somehow.

So I have made this card:

For making this card I used Karen Burniston's Accordion Rectangle Die.

I cut out the shape from a 270 gramme blue cardstock.

But as I wanted to use this die as a photo frame with two parts I cut two pieces.

I used this part of the die set to cut out two shapes from white cardstock as well.

But I needed only the frame so I cut out the unwanted parts and I coloured them with Distress Inks.

I glued them on the blue basic. I made the same thing with the backside of the card.

I stamped the crazy birds on white cardstock then I coloured them with Distress Markers.

I stamped with Tim Holtz Shabby French stamp on the frame, then I gessoed a little bit.

I cut out a smaller rectangle from white cardstock and I glued it on the blue basic. After I glued the birds too.

Because in the song there are lavenders I decided to put lavenders onto my card. For the lavenders I used a Memory Box Die, the Long Stem Lavender Die.
