Sally CT - Has your seasonal preparation started yet?

Hi There! Is it too early to mention the C word? After all we are 2 thirds of the way through October! I decided it was about time to get the stamps out  and have a play.  

I began by die cutting a few circles from super smooth white card. 

Next I stamped and heat embossed the round Bauble from the Baubleicious set in silver. 

I used ecoline markers to colour the bauble. 

Using Tag inkables set 2, a blending brush and Peacock Feathers Distress ink, I added some ink to the background. 

On a scrap of card I stamped the sentiment in purple ink.

I trimmed it and brushed a little ink around the edges. 

Finally, I attached both the sentiment and the circle to the front of a dark purple card. 

Here's a close up of the embossing.

I used: 

Inkables tag set 2

Bee Crafty Doodle Art Baubleicious stamp set

Silver embossing powder

Versamark ink pad

Versafine Clair ink pad in Monarch

Distress ink - I used Peacock Feathers

Ecoline pens

Circle die

Purple 5x5 base card

Thanks for looking!
