Decadent Denim Featuring the New Timleless Collection Stamps

Good Afternoon Everyone,

It has been a while since the blog has been updated, as you are all aware Phill has been very busy not only designing new products for us all but also preparing for the opening of his NEW SHOP in Sheffield, which is opening on 17th April.

Phill has also had quite a few shows on Hochanda recently which means that I have been busy designing sample cards for his demonstrations.

Well on with today's card which features the first card Phill demonstrated on his show for the Launch of the New Timeless Collection Stamps.


Products used:- which are all available on Phills website:-
www.honeypotcrafts.co.uk


White Card Stock
Timeless Corner Sentiment Stamps A5
Timeless Small Square Frame Stamp A6
Decadent Denim Gilding Wax
Decadent Denim Pearl P.V.A. Glue
Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Glue
Perfect Medium
Bright Gold Embossing Powder
Creative Expressions Dazzler
Sue Wilson Embossing Folder - Tartan Trellis
Sue Wilson Dies - New York Collection Herald Square
Sue Wilson Dies -  Delicate Fronds
Sue Wilson Dies - Orange Blossom Open Petals


Card Front 

Using plain white card stock I cut the layers as follows

1st layer 8 x 7
2nd layer 7.75 x 6.75
3rd layer 7.5 x 6.5
4th layer 7.5 x 2.5
5th layer 7.25 x 2.25

Taking the 2nd layer I used  Decadent Denim Gilding Wax around the edges then attached to the 1st layer using Cosmic Shimmer Glue.

Next with the 3rd layer I stamped the corners of the card using gold embossing powder and a sentiment from the Corner Stamps. I then embossed this using the Tartan Trellis embossing folder, and attached to the card.

For the panel I edged around the largest piece with Gilding Wax, then embossed the smallest one and attached both to the card.


Sentiment

Using the Herald Square Die I cut this out in plain white card.

I chose the 'With Best Wishes' stamp and heat embossed using the gold embossing powder.
I then attached this to the panel using pads to give dimension.

Finishing Touches

I cut out the fronds and petals from scraps of white card
(nothing gets wasted) then shaped and attached to the sentiment.
Finally I used Decadent Denim Pearl P.V.A. on the fronds  and added a dazzler to the centre of each flower.

                                                 Happy Crafting

Black and White - Happy New Year

Good Morning Everyone,

It was lovely to read all your comments on my last posting, thank you all so much.

Phill's shows on HOCHANDA went down a storm with everyone enjoying his demo's.

Keep watching his Facebook page and his Blog as all the cards he made are being given away, details will be posted very soon.

Today's card: 8 x 8 New Year Card in Black & White

Products used: (which are links to Phill's website )  :-)


8 x 8 Card Blank
Plain White Card Stock
Plain Black Card Stock
Plain White Vellum
Sentimentally Yours Bauble Elegant Collection A5 Stamps
Sentimentally Yours Festive Border Collection Stamp A5
Dazzlers
Seam Binding
Silver Embossing Powder

Sue Wilson Embossing Folder - Swirling Holly























First I cut a piece of Black Card to 7.75 sq and attached flat the the main card blank, then I cut a piece of white card stock to 7.5 sq . Using the Swirling Holly Embossing Folder I embossed this and attached flat to the card.

Next I cut out the frame using Black Card Stock, and my Grand Nestabilities Dies. I then chose my border from the Festive Border Collection Stamps. Using Silver Shine Embossing Powder and Perfect Medium I embossed around the frame, then attached to the card using pads to give dimension.


Sentiment

To create the sentiment I used the Bauble Elegant Collection Stamp.

I stamped two of these and again used Silver Shine Embossing Powder.

I then added the sentiment and again embossed it.

Next I cut them both out and glued them back to back inserting a very thin strip of acetate into the top of the bauble, which I then attached under the frame.

(The back of the bauble could be left blank to insert a personal message)





Snowflakes

Using Create-a-Flake Three dies I cut several of these out using white vellum. I shaped and glued together and attached to the card, using Cosmic Shimmer glue.

Finishing Touches

I added Cosmic Shimmer Glue to the edges of the snow flakes and then added Glacier Ice,
then added a small dazzler to the centre,

Finally I made a triple bow using Black Seam Binding and attached to the top of the bauble and added a medium sized dazzler.

                                                     Happy Crafting
