Technique – die cutting

Featuring die cutting

Cheers

Hi Everyone!

I’m back in my craft room after being away and it feels so good!

The theme for this week’s Less is More challenge is ‘shadow’ so I used a shadow/stencilling technique that Shari Carroll shared at Simon Says Create in 2015.

I used SSS fog card as my base and applied SSS Smoke ink over a Tim Holtz stencil and then moved it slightly before applying Lawn Fawn yeti ink. I used SSS banner dies to cut the panel and cut a vellum banner using the same die set, cutting it twice to remove the fishtail portion of the banner.

I cut the MFT Cheers die and three times – once with DCWV glitzy paper (isn’t it fabulous?!) and twice with white cardstock and then stuck them together before adding it to my card. I’m also entering this into the current SSS Flickr challenge –‘anything goes’.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone!

I love the colour combination for this week’s Color Throwdown challenge (red, orange, purple and yellow) and I made this quick card using the sketch from the current Case this Sketch challenge.

I applied distress ink to a Hero Arts background stamp and spritzed it with Perfect Pearls before stamping to give the panel a little bit of shimmer. The word die is also cut from a shimmery cardstock and is by Winnie & Walter.

Thanks for stopping by!

Red Berry Wreath

Happy Friday! It’s been a few weeks since I played along with the Merry Monday challenge, but I HAD to join this week as the theme is ‘wreath’ and I have a LOT of wreath dies and stamps. I used the sketch from Fusion Card Challenge and all dies and stamps are by Simons Says Stamp.

Finally I added tons of enamel dots that I made using Nuvo drops and added two glittery cardinals to finish it off!

Thanks for stopping by!
