Frou Frou Special Wishes Female Card Tied Together

Hello bloggers well the weather has changed drastically and we had a dull day yesterday with no sun at all which was the ideal time to strawberry pick.  Love being able to pick my own for free when strawberry season is in full flow.  Back to today I have a female card made using the tied together embossing folder and Frou Frou digi kit.

This card began as an A4 sheet of white card stock that I cut and scored to make a 4.75 x 5.75 card blank.  First I took a piece of white card stock and cut it down the the card blank size.  Next using tumbled glass distress ink and 'tied together' embossing folder I inked the folder front with the ink and then embossed the card stock. The ink then transferred to the background and the embossed areas are still white.    Next using Crafter's companion 'frou frou' digit kit I printed out a sheet of different toppers that I like.  I then chose a topper and die cut it using Spellbinders' heart circles' die set.  I then added the topper to the centre of the card.

Next using Polkadoodles 'sensational sentiments' stamp set and tumbled glass distress ink I stamped the sentiment.  It was then die cut using Spellbinders 'fancy tags two' die set and then to the card.  Using some blue ribbon I tied a bow and adhered it at the top of the topper.  I then added two faux pearls to the sentiment to finish off the card.

Nested Hearts

Hello, today's card is a lovely embossed nested hearts card.

I started with an A6 card blank and embossed it with 'tied together' embossing folder.  Next I stamped the sentiment  using creative expressions 'sentimental saying' stamp set.  This was then die cut using spellbinders Back to Basic Tags 2, then inked through the die with festive berries distress ink.  Once it was taken out of the die I inked the edges with the same ink and a bit of cut n dry foam.  I attached the sentiment to the card base using two jewel brads.  Using some pearlescent red paper I cut out a whole set of spellbinders ' nested hearts'.  Then I embossed them to get the lovely embossed detail you can see in the photo.  The hearts were then attached to the card so that there was one in front of the other at an angle.  Next I die cut the foliage from some green textured paper and inked through the die using peeled paint distress ink.  Using some red card stock I die cut a flower from spellbinders 'spiral blossom 2' die and the rolled it up to form a flower.  This was adhered together and then to the card.  The foliage was added tucked in behind the flower.

Hope you like this one.  Happy Crafting xx Hazel
