Isn’t this Kites Reverse die wonderful? I love that it’s all one piece & does the partial swirls as well. I die cut it into the Recollections heavy wt c/s…although it says it’s 110# it’s way heavier than the other 110# c/s. I wanted to be able to pull up the swirls slightly w/o worrying about it bending or tearing. I had a watercolor bg I made ages ago w/ blues & greens & a little iridescent medium (very sparkly IRL) & I loved the colors but wasn’t crazy about the overall look of it. So just using bits & pieces behind the kites was the perfect solution. I backed it w/ a very fine, smooth glitter c/s & let it show thru around the edges & under the kite tails. All that was left was to stamp the greeting & add a few sequins.Â
Here’s a look at the inside using a few leftover glitter kite parts.Â
Next stop is Vickie‘s Blog!  Please be sure to comment on all the DT Blogs..it will be so appreciated & also increase your chances of winning!

Love it Julie! Such a fun die that does so much with just one cut. Love your use of the watercolor blue with the bit of sparkle. Especially love the little free style bows on the kite tail on the inside!
Great use of the kite die. Just love it.
Very pretty color combination. Thanks for the inspiration
Love your swirly card. Pretty colors.

I love, love, love this die showing movement of the wind. Thank you.
Love those pretty kites! The die adds so much texture and dimension to the card!
Beautiful card.
I love how the swirls are popped
up. The glitter around the
kits really set them off.
thanks for sharing.
What a cute idea for this die! It looks nice and airy. I can almost feel the crisp autumn wind.
Love the card.
Such a lovely card. I like the way you cut out the top layer of cardstock. Very unique and intriguing. Have a nice weekend Julie.
