Die Cutting Delight

Hi friends, It's Kailash here and I am so excited to share my first post as a Creative Team member. For my card today I am featuring the new Decorative Accents Fancy Dies from the December release.

I started by taking an A2 sized panel of Dove White cardstock and placed the Alphabet Embossing Plate on it and ran it through my die cutting machine. This left an impression which created just the right amount of background texture I wanted. I then used Paradise, Ultra Pink, Kiwi and Adriatic cardstock colors to die cut the different dies. I also die cut the Looking Glass Ornate Frame from White Glitter Cardstock as I love the subtle sparkle and shine.

For the sentiment I used the new Message Basics stamp set and stamped the word "Hello" with Clear Embossing Ink and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.

I adhered all the dies and sentiment with Precision Glue onto the die cut background panel and completed the card using a Dove White Side Folded Card base. I finished the design by adding Hero Pearls in White and Teal. I love adding embellishments that are simple and fun to use.

Thank you for stopping by and hope I have inspired you. Have a lovely day!
