Perfume Bonus

I have another craftroom creation bonus for you all today! I was playing with the perfume jars digi stamps from Coffee Bean Designs and made this fun foiled slim line card.20200518_012411.jpg

The inspiration for this card came from the paper scraps I had been digging through while making my other two card for the Coffee Bean Design’s blog. I loved this 12 x 12 sheet that Said ” Truly madly deeply” at the bottom center, it made me think “love potion”. However I was unsure how to use it, so I set it a side and worked on my other two cards.  In the middle of creating them I got an idea for this card that I just had to try.

I printed the digi on white 80 pound card stock then I traced over the image lines with a deco foil adhesive pen. Well sort of… the tip on my glue pen was clogged, so I pulled the top off and poured out the glue onto my glass media mat and used  a small paint brush. But feel free to skip all that if you actually remember to put the tops back on to your glue.

I heated up my laminating machine and folded a piece of  standard printer paper in half to make a carrier sheet. I place my glue covered image face up inside the carry sheet, then added my silver deco foil shiny side up on top of my jar image, then closed my carrier sheet and ran it thorough my laminating machine.

Since the paper was 12 X 12 I decided to make a slim line card (3 1/2 by 8 1/2 inches)  I cut the patter paper down to be an 1/8 of an inch smaller then the black card base. To fill in some of the white space and play of the love potion idea, I made smokey potion by ink smooching watered down fired brick distress ink onto the pattern paper with left over clear stamp packaging.

The now potion bottle was fussy cut out but this time I left a white boarder around the image. Popped it up on an bit of foam tape and this card was done.

I hope you have enjoyed spending time with me and if you want to see more of my craft room creation follow me on social media @TheCraftBean.
