Could It Be Magic...

It's busy, busy, busy here today...but before I get started on lots of lovely new creations, I just wanted to drop by and say hello and share today's card...

It's another card inspired by the wonderful Tim Holtz and uses my favourite stamp set by the great man himself. I absolutely love Tim's quotes and phrases and this quote was just perfect for this card.
There is so much detail on this card, but it was all worth it for the finished effect...from the handmade flowers, to the stamping inside and out. I've used perfect pearls and distress inks in various colours, to create the backgrounds of the papers. I ran a distressing tool around the edges to make them look vintage. On the inside, I hand embossed the backing card, with a Cuttlebug folder and then lightly sanded over it to give an aged effect. The flowers are die cut with a Spellbinders Flower Creation Die and then scrunched and lightly dusted with Distress Ink and a layer of Distress Stickles.
So, I'd better get back to work and I hope you all have a lovely Thursday!
Thanks for stopping by...
Love Emma
