PSA Essentials & Helmar USA

Hope you are having a great weekend. The weather this week in Northern California was nice and cool. I didn't turn on the central air conditioning the entire week; it was heavenly!

Here's a card I made for PSA Essentials using their Rosettas set of stamps (my favorite). This past week PSA Essentials partnered with Helmar USA adhesives to showcase both companies' products.

This card started with this card design I cut out using black cardstock and my Silhouette digital cutter.

I stamped the Rosettas designs on white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them in with Copic markers. I glued the white cardstock inside the cutout panels of the black card. I finished the design by adding gems to the flowers with Helmar 450 Quick Dry glue. I finished the card with some faux stitching.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Day

This card is for Kristina's Color Challenge #9 and Theresa's All About Bling Challenge.

First an apology, I've been referring to Kristina as Katrina. Duh! I don't know why. Sorry! I hate when people call me Annette instead of Anthonette.

Our colors this week are:

Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, Old Olive, Tempting Turquoise

I embossed the flower images with Turquoise embossing powder. I don't have a blender pen (need one!), so I used a small brush to paint from the ink pads onto the embossed images. I cut the images out and mounted them onto So Saffron cardstock.
