Products used:- All of which can be found on Phill's website - www.honeypotcrafts.co.uk

Craft Card
White Foundation Card
Precious Metals Copper Gilding Wax
Precious Metals Copper Embossing Powder
Precious Metals Copper Pearl P.V.A.

Phill Martin's From The Heart Collection Dies

This Is What I Did :-


Using Craft Card Stock I cut 2 pieces  8 x 6.5 and 6 x 5

Then using White Card Stock I cut 2 pieces 7.75 x 6.25 and 5.75 x 4.75

Next I used the Copper Gilding Wax and covered the 2 white pieces of card.

Once this was dry I buffed it up with a soft cloth, then embossed it using the Swirling Hearts Embossing Folder.

I then layered the 2 largest pieces flat and the 2 smallest pieces on pads.


Sentiment

I chose this sentiment using From The Heart Collection Dies.

After cutting it out I used Copper Embossing Powder and heat embossed it, then attached it to the card using pads to give dimension.



Finishing Touches

Using scraps of Craft Card I cut several flowers out.

Taking the Complete Petals I sprayed them with Copper Mister Spray.

Then I used Copper Embossing Powder on the Open Petals. I then shaped and layered these together, and attached to the card using small pads.

Finally I added Copper Twinkles to the edges of the closed petals and Copper P.V.A. to the stamen.

Retirement Card in Cream & Craft Card - Featuring the New Timeless Collection Stamps

Good Morning Everyone,

Today's card is created using the New Timeless Stamps, I particularly used these stamps again to show how adaptable these are for male and female cards, plus the fact these are one of my favourite collections.

Products Used:- All of which are available on Phills website:-

www.honeypotcrafts.co.uk

Craft Card and Cream Card Stock
Timeless Everyday Corner Sentiment Stamps A5
Timeless Large Rectangle Frame Stamp A5
Timeless Everyday Sentiment Tags A5
Timeless Occasions Sentiment Stamps A5
Decadent Oak Pearl P.V.A. Glue
Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Glue
Bakers Twine
Bright Gold Embossing Powder

This Is How I Created It

1st Layer -  Cream Card Cut to 7.75 Square
2nd Layer - Craft Card Cut to 7.5 Square
3rd Layer - Cream Card Cut to 7.25 Square

I embossed the 3rd layer using the Tartan Trellis Embossing Folder then attached all 3 layers together (flat) using Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Glue.

Next I cut the panel as follows:-

Craft Card cut to 7.25 x 5.75 and cut the corners using the Woodware Corner Punch, and tied the Bakers Twine around the edges.

The next layer in Cream Card cut to 7 x 5.25

I then used Gold Embossing Powder and the Corner Sentiment Stamp and heat embossed this before embossing with the Tartan Trellis Embossing Folder.

I then attached the 2 panels to card using pads to give dimension.



Sentiment

Using Cream Card and the Large Timeless Rectangle Frame Stamp and the Everyday Sentiment Tag Stamp I heat embossed these in Bright Gold Embossing Powder and then cut them out.

I shaped the 'Tag' and attached with Cosmic Shimmer Glue and the Rectangle I attached on pads.


Finishing Touches

I cut the keys out in Cream Card, then using a double sided adhesive sheet, I added the Micro Beads, then attached to the top of the tag.

Finally I added a quadruple bow made from Bakers Twine  and Decadent Oak Pearl P.V.A. to the corners.

This is now ready to attach to an 8 x 8 Card Stock.

                                                    Happy Crafting
