Hello card with John
Hallo and welcome to another make created with the Gentlemans Emporium range from Couture Creations.
This one again features both the Gentleman's Emporium set and also my own Cut Foil & Emboss dies too.
Here is the finished card, hope you like it :)

- CO724389 - Turbo Glue Pen
- CO726428 - Black Adhesive Foam Dots
- 135mm Square White Card Blank
- Double-Sided Tape
- Metallic Pigment Inkpad
Here is how I made it.
I began by cropping down the card stock and papers as follows:
Obsidian - 13cm
Fencepost - 12cm
Snow White - 10.5cm
Pattered Paper - 10cm
These were layered onto the front of the card using double sided tape.
I then used the inked letterpress technique, the Hello Cut Foil and Emboss Die on the smooth black card to create the sentiment.
At the same time I used the same technique and card with the starburst background Cut Foil & Emboss die.
This was glued to the front of the card using the Turbo glue pen.
Having pre-selected a few of the die cut elements from the Gentleman's Emporium ephemera pack I glued one in the middle of the card and then used foam pads to raise the outer two figures up a little.
Returning to the cardstock I created a sentiment panel by cutting the following layers:
Obsidian: 9 cm x 3.5 cm
Fencepost: 8.5 cm x 3 cm
Snow White: 8cm x 2.5cm
These were layered together with double sided tape and then fixed in place on the card using foam pads.
The sentiment was then put into position, again using foam pads.
The final touch was a little bling in the corners with the seaspray adhesive gems.
A dapper salutation to any gentlemen in your life, yes?
Cheers John :)
