Couture Creations: Beach Babe by Lesa Bird

Hi everyone, nice to see you back in 2014.
Couture Creations has a lot of new dies and folders coming out this year, and today I'm having a play with the some of new The Harmony collection of embossing folders and Secret Treasure decorative dies

So here we go

This is the Sketch that I created for this project

Emboss one of the background cardstock using Couture Creations Harmony Zig Zag Embossing Folder, and roughly sand with the Couture Creations Sanding Block, ink all edges with Couture Creations Sponge Dauber

The second background cardstock emboss with Couture Creations Harmony Clay Brick Embossing Folder, now using a brayer, roll over the embossed surface with glue and sprinkle glitter over it, shake off excess

Take both strips of cardstock and Emboss with Couture Creations Harmony Fine Dots Embossing Folder, run a hard surface ink pad over it, to enhance embossing, fancy it up a little with and edge punch

Using the Couture Creations Secret Treasures Reto Flower, cut out 12 or so of the middle size flower, brush the centre for each flower with ink, roll forward one side of each petal, and then bend each petal up to the centre, place one Couture Creations Gemstone in the middle of each flower.
