I've been making personal cards and didn't want to post them until they are in the hands of the recipient. This is an anniversary card I made for a very special couple in my life.
The hedgehogs are an old stamp by Penny Black. I stamped and embossed on watercolor paper, then added color with my Peerless watercolors. The sentiment is from Art Impressions, with hearts added with a Pearl Pen. The frame and ribbon slide are from pearlescent paper. I had a lot of problems getting any adhesive to hold the watercolor paper to the pearlescent paper. Then the ribbon slide wouldn't stick to the ribbon. I used Miracle tape, which didn't hold. I used dimensional foam tape, which didn't hold. Finally, I drizzled some Glossy Accents under the ribbon slide and held it in place until dry. When mailed, it appeared to be holding together. The little hearts are stickers.
