I ran out of time this week to make a video, but if I can squeeze it in, I will try to get one made to show my process. There are a few different ways to go about using all of these products together. What I did was die cut the images first, then stamp & stencil to add color to the images. After that, I used the embossing folder to add the texture. I also added glossy accents & glitter to a few images.
This next card uses only the candy canes. First I die cut a bunch of white candy canes. Then I stamped each with Poppy ink. Then I popped them up onto a Ballet Slipper panel. I added glossy accents and glitter to each one…what can I say, when I pull out the glitter, I can’t stop.
For the sentiment I used the Piped Sentiments: Sweet Die with gold cardstock and added a sub-sentiment using the Christmas Confections Sentiment Additions Stamp & Die Set.
Hi there and Happy Halloween to those who celebrate! Today I’m sharing a graphic & colorful take using the Floating Ghost Cat die. This idea is a fun one for Halloween, but could easily be adapted for many occasions. Just switch up the color combinations and use whatever die images you have that could fit repeatedly on a card base.
For the floating ghost cats, I die cut the backer cat and ghost topper out of white cardstock. I used a pink and black copic to color the ears, eyes and nose before gluing on the ghost costume. I also added a few clear gemstones for fun.
This next card has a more teal color combination using (background to for front): Sea Glass, Juniper, Rainforest. I blended Rainforest ink onto the silhouette images to make them slightly darker as well as a big of ink along the outer scalloped edge. All of these cards have embossed sentiments from the Laid Back Holiday stamp & die set.
Here is a video showing how I created these cards.
