Victorian Phone
Hello and welcome back to the inspiration blog. I'm excited to show you the new Victorian Phone Impress-ion Press + Foil Plates today. If you haven't had a chance to play with the Press + Foil system, what are you waiting for??? I absolutely LOVE the look of letter press and the little added touch of texture it provides! It's so luxurious!
I started with an A2 sized card panel in gray. I chose a sentiment from the set and the phone plate itself. I inked it up with Raven ink & pressed the image onto the card stock. It provides a beautiful image with just one run through the die cut machine!
Next, I die cut the telephone using the Victorian Phone Coordinating Die. I also fussy cut the sentiment. I prepared an A2 top folding, white card base. I die cut a pink panel using the Stitched Scalloped Arches Dies. I adhered the pink panel onto the base using foam strips, then adhered the telephone and sentiment using thin foam squares. I finished the card off with some shiny embellishments for a little sparkle.
I absolutely LOVE a good clean and simple card. You could add a little splatter or ink blending to the pink card panel for a little more interest if you like. I really wish we still had these beautiful phones around! Such quirky character!
I hope you find some time to get crafty today! Hugs, LeeAnn
