Heavenly Glory

 I love circles and the new Wednesday Sketch challenge  (SC190) has a circle smack dab in the middle!!  Well, I got busy playing around to see what I could come up with.    Yesterday I played around with gold foil and velvet so today I turned my attention to silver!  Here is the sketch.

 

It’s difficult photographing the foil paper so have a peek at the picture below, it’s taken laying flat and the colors are truer.  Okay, now on to the card…basically I cut a circle with my nesties then stamped the circle with Stazon and embossed with the Leafy Branch Cuttlebug Embossing folder.  I added layers, pearls, ribbon and an embossed element to balance the card.  The final touch was to hang a little cross from a jewelry spacer element I dug out of my beading supplies – it is attached with a silver brad!  How easy was that!  This card uses a sentiment from the newly released Angel set from Our Daily Bread Designs.   I am loving the versatility of all the new sets and the verse choices were excellent; they will get a lot of mileage in my stash.

 

Supplies:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs
Paper:  Marcella K Design Paper, Fabriano Acquarello Watercolor Paper, Silver Foil Paper
Ink:  Stazon Black, Versamark
Accessories:  Cuttlebug Leafy Branch Embossing Folder, Nestabilities, White Embossing Powder, Half Pearls, Spacer, Brad, Cross

Alright, back to stamping for me…thanks for stopping by!

    Good evening, Becca. Your choice of colours is beautiful. I love working with foil card – we call it Mirri card” over here and I have it in many colours. The gold and silver are particularly stunning as is shown in your card and they emboss particularly well with the cuttlebug. I love your choice of scripture too. All in all a very beautiful, meaningful and elegant card. Thank you for sharing.ReplyCancel

    Becca, I have been visiting your blog each day for ages and I just had to tell you how much I love your work. Each new creation is superb, and your attention to detail is amazing. I am not a particularly religious person myself, but that certainly doesn’t stop me enjoying the beauty of your work.

    Hi Becca,
    Just wanted to say I really like your blog. Found it from a post on Beate’s yahoo group with a link to your medallion tutorial.
    Hope you don’t mind, I have added you to my “who’s updated their blog?” list on my blog.
