Best Friend

Hello folks, I am back! I am terribly late sharing all my latest creations but life interfered big time. We had some major very unexpected repairs going on in and around the house in the last two weeks. So hopefully we are done now for a while replacing stuff and I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend with hopefully some beach time.

Without further ado here comes my first creation I made for Whimsy's latest release:

I inked a white cardstock panel that would fit my 8.5" x 3.5" slimline card using distress inks and blending brushes. I used spiced marmalade, worn lipstick and bundled sage. Then I stamped the floral background using the NEW Dainty Daisies Slimline Background Stamp with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

I then cut out a white frame using the previously released Slimline Fancy Frame die set. I stamped one of the frames from the NEW Doodles Frame set onto vellum paper with Versafine Clair ink and embossed with black embossing powder. I then die cut the frame using the matching NEW Doodles Frame die set. 

I die cut the NEW Best Friend word die several times. 2 x from black cardstock and 4 x from white cardstock. I layered and glued (using a glue pen) them on top of each other starting with the two black layers and followed with the white layers on top. This gives a bit of a shadow effect and makes the letters stand out more from the background. I then assembled my card and added a few confetti sequins for decoration.
