Bestie's birthday card

I'm SOOO mad!!!

I finished this card bar the sentiment.

I made it with Centura Pearl card.

With me so far?

I embellished it, stuck everything on foam pads etc. Then Stamped with versafine Onyx Black.

It's the blackest black EVER.....only it doesn't dry very quickly on Centura Pearl card.

I think you know where I'm going with this, don't you! *Sigh*.

YEP!! I SMUDGED THE SENTIMENT!! ARGHHH

Well, I wasn't about to waste all that hard work and the embellishments.

They were the only ones I had, so it was a case of peel off that blue layer 

then put it on another base card.

It was a nightmare to get off and I creased tho top half in doing so.

I nearly cried. I was LIVID!!

Once I'd re-attached it to the new base card, it looked OK though.

you could JUST see that damn crease though, so I rang Pam and explained that I hadn't actually dismembered someone else's card to make hers! LOL

Phew! That was a bit long winded, wasn't it! 

Here's the poor card I faffed up!

Shock! Horror! Not a Copic in sight!! LOL

I actually LOVE this card. I wanted something FAIRLY CAS, as that's the type Pam likes.

The cupcake dimentional sticker is from a Studio 18 pack.

The edge of the blue card was made with Spellbinder's fancy edge dies.

I framed a link of stick on pearls to match the edge.

The sentiment is from SU! (Inked this time with Memento tuxedo Black)!

Pam loved it!

 Have a super duper Sunday!

A Precious Moment..............card 2

I LOVE this set of Precious Moments stamps. It was featured as a TSV on QVC last year and my dear friend Issy, got it. She's kindly lent me her set as try as I might, I can't find it anywhere now. (Yep, I didn't see it on QVC). *groan*.

Ah well, I've stamped enough images from Issy's set to last me a lifetime, so it's not the end of the world by any means. I used SU's paper, 'Tea and Crumpets' and CS in Bashful Blue and Pumpkin Pie. Coloured in Copics and sponged the image with Tim Holtz 'Faded Jeans'. Ribbon is one of three reels I got at the Make It show at Farnborough last Autumn. One green, one red, one tangerine. I stamped the sentiment with a Memento dewdrop... Tangelo.

Thanks for dropping in. Please leave a comment, it makes my day. Viv xx
