Annabelle Is All Ready for Canada Day!
 
I did up this adorable image as a Birthday Celebration!

 I used Perfect Pearls with a Firework Stamp from my stash (sorry couldn't locate the Designer) to create a BG that went with the Sparklers in the image. 

CS is from American Crafts and used MFT's Die-namics Blueprints 3 to Die cut the image. Made it into a tag with an eyelet and American Crafts Twine. Created a Border with my Chameleon Pens Fine Liner Pen. Added a "Celebrate" Die Cut as a sentiment. 


I colored the image with SN Markers:

And here's the inside with the same design as the front and Sentiment from Mama Elephant's "Happy Everything" Set:

So Suzy Stamps~ Elegance with Perfect Pearls

Good Morning my crafty friends! 

It's my turn to host over at So Suzy Stamps! today.

For today's make, I went with a CAS card using Dandelion & Dandelion Fluff set and

 Elegance with Perfect Pearls. 

I started with a piece of Black cardstock. Use your Embossing Buddy over the entire cardstock to ensure your Versamark or Perfect Medium and Perfect Pearls stick only where you want it to. :o)

Add Versamark or Perfect Medium to your sentiment/image.  Then with a thin paintbrush, paint your image/sentiment with the Perfect Pearls, brush off any excess with a wider brush or even a Swiffer Cloth. 

Spray some water into the air using a Mister and wave the cardstock thru it. This will set the Perfect Pearls without soaking it. 

Embellish and decorate as desired and Voila! Very Pretty CAS card. :o)
