Mandala Love

Hi Everyone,

It's not to late to get a Valentines card made for that special someone.

This card is using stamps and dies from Paper Rose.

The background is coloured using my new Karin Markers.

I am slowly getting used to them.

Ingredients

Stamp:  #17883 Beautiful Mandala

Sentiment:  #18042 Love Layered, Large

Background:  Karin Markers (Magenta Red 170, Amber 195)

Card:  Watercolour Card & White Card

Other:  Swarovski Crystals, Versamark Ink, White Embossing Powder, double sided adhesive paper.

METHOD:

• Stamp Mandala onto watercolour card using versamark ink and sprinkle white embossing powder over the top. Tap off extra powder.  Heat set.
• Layer Karin Markers onto a sandwich bag.  Spray embossed card with water.  Smooch plastic bag onto embossed card.  Heat set.  Continue doing this until you are happy with the colour.
• Cover the back of the coloured/embossed card with double sided adhesive paper.  This makes life easier.  Cut 'Love' from the embossed/coloured card.  Layer the back piece and negative pieces onto a piece of white card, trim to size.  Set aside the 'love' cut out.
• From white card, cut 4 of the 'love' die.  Adhere these into the embossed/coloured card.
• Adhere the coloured/embossed 'Love' back onto the card base.
• Adhere Swarovski crystals to card.

Until next time

Melissa
