Have you tried the new word dies that SU has come out with? I'm telling you, they are fabulous. I know what you are thinking. I never say anything bad about SU stuff. But how can I when I am so happy with everything I get?! I did have a little frustration with the word dies and the gold foil paper at first, but I found a super tip somewhere on the interweb that fixed it right quick :) Just lay a sheet of wax paper between your die and the paper and it pops right out, just like magic!
Obviously, I can't stop using the Core'dinations paper. I just love the texture it brings to a card. I used the new Pretty Print and the old Delicate Designs embossing folders. I love the juxtaposition of the feminine cursive writing and lace trim with the masculine woodgrain layer! The first "love" is cut from a piece of cardstock I colored with a blender pen and Cherry Cobbler ink. Lovely! ;)
Here is a shot of my daughter that I love, love, love! Nothing like a pine cone rose in your teeth :) This was in Big Trees State Park in California during our trip with my mom. Charlene took this photo herself, and luckily I got copies of all the photos on my computer :)
So many pretty details on your card. The embossing is just the beginning; then there's the stitching around the edges and the flow of color (on the first "love"). I need to stare at this one for a while to capture it all. TFS!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card!! I love the words with the print embossing folder.
ReplyDeleteThe red embossed paper is beautiful. Love the sanding on the red and then the wood grain layer. The "Love" words are so pretty.
