Back to normality today with the Monday giveaway. I hope some of you were able to catch my show yesterday I know its a big ask on a Sunday certainly at lunchtime lol
Today's card is one of the samples I used for the show and was really liked by Alex! I thought you might like it and a chance to own this card as well.
I had lots of questions asking how did I make the original I'm hoping you managed to see the version I mad on air as it was different with a mica watercoloured background.
I stared by stamping my daisy striplet in Cosmic shimmer true white embossing powder onto acetate (using perfect medium) I heat set this and added Phill Martin's decadent denim PVA as the centre of each daisy to give some depth.
Next I cut an aperture in a piece of periwinkle foundation card and mounted this above the stamped acetate.
I matted and layered the piece to make a larger card using a piece of card onto which I had sprayed decedent denim ink spray mister. This gave the card a lovely textural feel and made the dark shades harmonise.
Finally I added a ribbon tie and messy bow made form seam binding that I sprayed with the mister. I sprayed this with the ribbon all looped together ( see picture for what i mean) so that I got a misty or ombre look to the bow.
Ingredients:
Phill Martin Cosmic Shimmer Decadent Denim
Ink Spray mister
Mica Powder
PVA Pearl
True white detail embossing powder
JL Daisy Striplet stamp
Acetate
Periwinkle foundation card

John, I saw you make the variation of this card and learned so much. Saw this card on air and it was beautiful. Would love a chance to win it. Thanks so much and have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteHi John.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. I recorded the shows and watched last night.
John I have a question, yesterday when you wanted a sticky stamp you used two pads,could you have used a black perfect medium pad which Julia has in her shop ? I have been tempted to buy the black one Thank you take care Kitty.
Lovely john and the shows were great; nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

Morning John, oh yes I saw you doing this techniques on Hochanda yesterday and was enthralled and mesmerised, it was brilliant, I will certainly have to have a go at this one, I loved it. I bet Alex has a go at this in her spare time too. You make a great team together on the show. Oh I would love to win this one.

Hi John a lovely card, saw you demo this on Hochanda so it is great to have your blog for future referral.
ReplyDeleteWendyx
I didn't see this show on Hochanda. On C&C at least you could catch up on shows that you had missed; that's an option I sure miss on Hochanda. Do mention it to them, will you?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this card! Beautiful!
Hi John,
ReplyDeleteManaged to watch some of yesterdays show. The demos were great of ciurse. I just love this card from the color to the mica powder. You're like Sue, you're always comingup with new ideas.

ReplyDeleteHi John
ReplyDeleteLove today's card, but I haven't seen yesterday's version yet as I had to record the show. I'm glad you were on with Alex this time as she lets you get on with it. With not to much chatter. Must try stamping onto acetate. It's looks a bit scary though.
Hi John,
ReplyDeleteSTUNNING Absolutely stunning. Unfortunately I missed your shows yesterday AND forgot to record....I am gutted as I would have liked to see the stamping on acetate technique!

ReplyDeleteI saw you demo this John, it is an absolutely stunning design - I love it. So many brilliant tips you threw in during your demos. My favourite is inking the stamp with Perfect Medium before inking with colour so that it stays wet for embossing. Brilliant, thank you so much!! Pat x
