Its once again my turn to share some inspiration for
Im once again using dies from the October New Release and you can find the dies Ive used and many more yummy goodies oover in the STORE.
For my cards today, I have used the dies called:
This one here is a play with distress ink mixed with a shaker card.
I made the pink background by just adding ink to my card and splashing with water to make the puddles. I then diecut my greeting from my background and once again, just from white card stock.
I stuck some accetate behind the hole in my pink background and added foam tape on the back to keep my little beads inside. I then added my white greeting into where the pink greeting should have been and Voila... I finished with a few gems.
**********************
These next 2 cards is really a "2 for 1" kind a card.
I made the background on the top card first. I cut 10 of the snowflake border from a silver card stock. I then took a piece of card (size 105mm x 145mm, same size as my card blank), covered it in double sided sticky sheet and removed the backing paper.
I stuck the snowflake borders to my card so I got an even coverage and trimmed the edges.
This however still left me with all the gaps, still sticky, on my card. But here is why I used the sticky sheet.. I filled all the gaps with glitter. It looks so pretty and shiney.
Anyway, background done.. So now I took a circle die and cut out a nice big hole in my background..
And that is how I got 2 for 1..
For this card I used the background itself. I die cut my greeting from both silver and black card stock and glue them together off set. This gives the black egde behind the greetings.
For this one I added a piece of the same silver card stock I used for the snowflakes, down the centre of my card. I added foam tape behind my circle and used black card stock to cut my sentiment from.
