It's time for a new Addicted to Stamps and More challenge, and we are on to Die Cuts and Stencils! I have lately been using some of my pretty patterned paper making eclipse cards. Here's one:
For me, eclipse cards such as this one are a perfect way to use some of my 12" x 12" patterned paper, since the designs are sometimes too large to incorporate into a standard A2 card in other ways - for me, at least. This large SMILE die is also ideal for incorporating into an eclipse design. I added a secondary sentiment below as well as a few gems in the same blue shade.
I'm adding this floral card to Wednesday's Simon Says Stamp challenge, Feminine.
My teammates at ATSM have used dies, stencils - and sometimes both! - in beautiful designs, so be sure to visit for lots of card inspiration. Hope you will join us!
Supplies: Neenah white cardstock, Stampin' Up Beyond the Garden patterned paper, Clearly Besotted Many Mini Messages stamp, Versamark & Memento Paris dusk ink, Wow clear gloss embossing powder, MFT Smile & Sugar Pea Designs card front element builder dies, Studio Katia September Crystals
Awesome design! Love the pretty blooms!
ReplyDeleteWell done you using up the DP, the eclipse technique works well with it. I get mine out, stare at them and can't bring myself to cut into them, especially the 12 x 12s! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun design, Lindsey and such a great way to use up some pretty DP!
