First off, you’ll notice we have these fabulous new Stamp/Die Duo sets! You’re going to want to grab them because I know they’re going to sell like hot cakes. There’s a greeting for almost everything in these two sets & the coordinating die is fabulous!
I’ve been combining die cut words w/ greetings for a while & these 2 sets make it so easy. On my first card, I used the You Bless Me So duo set. Don’t you love that smiley face? I thought it would be perfect as the center of a happy little flower. I die cut the white Lavish Layer & used a Pierced Circle to cut out the center. I used the same die on the patterned paper underneath, just for that something extra. After die cutting I large & 2 med Posies, I took the med white one & cut apart the petals to move them out just a tad from behind the polka dot layer.
I added the die cut You & greeting below along w/ a Bitty Butterfly & a couple more flowers in the corner. The You was stacked on top of a thick white layer to give it a little dimension.
Here’s a look at the inside.
Supplies:
| Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – You Bless Me So |
| Paper: Staples 110# white, dp (ODBD -Birthday Brights paper) |
| Ink: Versafine onyx |
| Accessories: ODBD Pierced Circles, Lavish Layers, Pierced Rectangles, Bitty Butterflies (retired), Pretty Posies dies, black Glaze pen ( to go over the smiley face), Copic markers (to edge the smiley face circle & flowers on inside) |
My second card features the Sending My Love duo set. Did I mention the greetings are clear sets? Makes it sooooo easy to see where to stamp it. I wanted a fun, festive card and these dies are PERFECT. I made the center white panel to resemble a wrapped package, using the the Bitty Borders as added trim & the Mini Bow to top it off. I also added a small balloon (from the Happy Birthday dies) to go along w/ the larger Balloons & Streamers I used.
I added part of the banner across the upper left corner then added the stamped greeting w/ the Sending die cut above it. Did you also notice these fun, bright papers? These are so festive!
