Decadent Damask Oak - Best Wishes

Good Morning Everyone,


Thank you all very much for such lovely comments on my previous blog.


Today's card is an 8 x 8
 I particularly enjoyed creating this card, its so nice to be able to colour match everything, and I love the NEW Colour Cloud Blending Inks.

Matting & Layering

8 x 8 Card Blank

1st layer Cream Card cut to 7.75 x 7.75
2nd layer Decadent Oak Patterned Paper cut to 7.5 x 7.5

4 pieces of cream card
1st cut to 4.5 x 7.75
2nd cut to 4 x 7.75
3rd cut to 3.5 x 7.75
4th cut to 3.5 x 7.75

Starting with the 7.75 square cream card I used the NEW Decadent Oak Colour Cloud to ink around the edges of the card. I then attached this and the patterned Decadent Damask paper to the base card.

Next taking the 4 pieces of cream card and the Inner Border Tag I cut each piece of card, Once this was complete I used the smallest and medium size stamps from the Decadent Damask Border & Icon Collection and randomly stamped the smallest piece of card using first and second generation.
Once this was dry I attached all the layers together, then added a strip of seam binding securing this on the reverse before attaching this to the main card.

Sentiment

Using Spellbinders Labels Twenty Eight and the second largest die I cut this out and then sprayed it with Decadent Oak  Mister Spray. While this was drying which is only a couple of minutes, I cut the third largest die. I then stamped this using the Decadent Oak Colour Cloud and the Decadent Damask Everyday Sentiment Stamps.
These were then attached to the card using pads on both to give dimension

Finishing Touches

I made a triple bow and swags and attached to the seam binding strip, then added a matching Dazzler.

Then to the Decorative Border edges I added the the Twinkles - once this was dry I curled each layer.

Finally I added Decadent Oak PVA to the sentiment.
