Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where our theme this month is ‘New Goodies’. I have chosen to make a gilded art card for you. With the January – June 2021 and Sale-A-Bration catalogues coming out on the 5th January and lots of goodies from my pre-order to play with, I have been spoilt for choice. If you have hopped on from Karen Egan I am sure you loved her project
To recreate the gilded art card, you will need:
Just Jade card base – 8¼ by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Gorgeous Grape – 5 ½” by 3 ¾”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2
Scrap Whisper White
I really, really wanted to play with the gilding flakes but didn’t have any Heat & Stick Powder – so I improvised by sticking strips of Tear & Tape along all 4 sides of one of the Whisper White panels. I removed the backing and covered the tape with the flakes, rubbed them onto the tape with my fingers to remove the excess flakes and bring out the shine. I absolutely love the effect.
The stem and leaves from the Art Gallery stamp set were stamped in Just Jade ink onto the edged panel before it was added to the Gorgeous Grape layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
I wrapped a length of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon around the panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape. The whole panel was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.
The solid part of the flower was stamped in Flirty Flamingo ink onto scrap Whisper White card and the more detailed layer was added using the same ink. The centre of the flower was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink. Using the Floral Gallery Dies I cut out the flower and added it to the card front on Dimensionals.
The sentiment was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink and cut out using one of the sweet labels from the same set of dies. It was added to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot and a bow made from the sheer ribbon.
I added a scattering of the new Pastel Pearls to complete the card. So pretty, I hope you like it.
