stampshow in The Netherlands:

in Zeist.

Michael Strong was also here

and gave a free make&take

all weekend.

On Saturday he made greenhouses.

First people colored the paper with

different colors of inka gold paint.

This dries very quickly, so on top

the house was embossed with

pearlscent ivory embossing powder.

The house was cut out and  matted on

a piece of gold paper.and glued to the

card. With leave and flower punches

and the left over colored paper the ribbon

 of gold was decorated next to the house.

 

On Sunday there was a different workshop.

Chocolate card with the heart embossed with

orient express embossing powder.

Mike made me a version with the coffee

cup as well. The border of the card is made

out of different sizes circles and little

punched out hearts.

The card is ale decorated with a dark

chocolate pearl pen that leaves little

pearl dots.

 

So today I made a combination of these

two cards.

First I colored my paper with gold and red

inka gold paint by Viva Decor

Then I stamped the cloisonné heart on top

with versamark and embossed it with orient

express embossing powder. When finished the

heart is cut out.

For de border I used a few circle punches

and the heart punch.

Also I used a red pearl pen by Viva Decor.

The sentiment is by Stampin Up! (Whimsical Words).

The dots are also on the heart.

 

Have a creative day!
