Hello blog friends!
I'm back with another cute little make. A friend of mine isn't too good at the moment and is feeling pretty lousy, so I thought I would make him a little card.
I am a big, big fan of Paper Smooches and have quite a collection of their stamps, so I delved through them all to find the wonderful Healthy Vibes set.
What you need...
Stamps: Healthy Vibes - Paper Smooches
Embossing ink: Clear Ultra Slow Drying Embossing Pad - WOW!
Embossing powder: Detail Clear - Stampendous
Copic markers: E50 Egg Shell, E51 Milky White, RV00 Water Lily, RV02 Sugared Almond Pink
Card stock: aqua
Ink pad: Extreme Black - My Favorite Things
Masking paper: Stamping Mask Paper - Inkadinkado
Adhesives
What you do...
1 Cut a 9.5cm square of aqua card. Mask off an area near the bottom of the card where you want the sentiment to be.
2 Stamp the plaster randomly over the card with the clear embossing ink. Cover with the embossing powder and heat set.
3 Remove the mask and stamp the sentiment with black ink.
4 Stamp the plaster and colour in. Cut out and attach above the sentiment with foam pads.
5 Mat the panel onto a white 10cm square blank.
I find that when heating the embossing powder, it is best to do it from the back of the card. This gives you a bit more control and stops the powder over heating.
I did use this stamp set years ago for some fun makes in Crafts Beautiful. I managed to find a photo showing one of the cards I made.

I have just finished making a couple of cards using the Silhouette, so I will be back soon with those. One is a St Patrick's Day card (June if you are reading this you know that is for you and Stephen and will be winging it's way to you soon). The other is a Mother's Day card as here in the UK Mother's Day falls on the 22nd March.
Well, I'm going to sign off for now. Thank you for stopping by. TTFN!

Love this card, and it's background stamping, great idea to mask the sentiment area, thanks.
