For You
Hello bloggers! I selected a piece of white card and used the centre die from the Art Deco Rosette to cut into the card randomly all over. I made about a dozen cuts into the card, then I backed it with a piece from my background stash where I had dropped some watercolour inks of differing colours all over it. Once it was glued behind the die cut background, I used spray glued to coat the entire piece then I sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz all over it. I used the dies from the Art Deco Grand Labels and cut the larger and the smaller one out of white card. I backed both of them in white too. I stacked the two dies on top of the background with the larger die seated on the background and the smaller one on top of it. I cut the Art Deco For You sentiment in black and glued it to the label die. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue. What a pretty start to your week of inspiration, it's so delicate, and I bet in real life its stunning when the light catches it. Cutting into cardstock is something I always forget we can do with our dies, it's about time I did more of this - when I think about it !! Love to all that visit and comment today xx
Hi Sue Loving your inspiration with this card quite a lot of work went into it and very much a enjoyable card. I will be on holiday now for a week see you back here again later on. Owlish Xx
Hi Sue. What a very cheerful and colourful card today. I have t admit that I always forget about cutting into the card to make a background like you have done.
Hi Sue, what a lovely surprise to see today's very pretty card. I love the way the colours come through the cut-outs and then to cover it all with sparkle really brings it to life, brilliant.
