Here is another sneak peek of one of the amazing new stamp sets being released On July 1st by Our Daily Bread designs! This set is called Let Us Begin and is part of the Mother Teresa collection. I inked up the stamps with Versamark, and gold ink and then heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I layered this with Pink Pirouette and Prism Gold Metallic paper. I used a Classic Square die for the white and the Labels Three die for the gold layer. The pretty lotus corner is water-colored with ODBD's Vintage Pink inkpad. I smooshed the lid into the inkpad in order to get the ink onto the watercolor brush. I pierced a couple of holes to thread the gold cord through to attach the gold cross charm. I added a tiny gold half bead to the charm as well! The base of the card is Pink Pirouette, layered with gold and then layered with a piece of Bella Rose designer paper(SU!) On the dsp, I used Tattered Angels Gold Glimmer Mist with Glimmer Screens Decorative Corners. I used an EK Success border punch at the bottom and used two of the punched Fleur de Lis pieces in the top corners. I inked them with gold ink before attaching them! I added three more gold half beads to finish the card!
I made this card for this month's Dirty Dozen Central theme called In the Beginning, celebrating all of the beginnings of life. This card will be used as a wedding card! If you are not a fan club member, you are missing out on some wonderful creations to ooh and ahh over!
