I managed to sneak in a bit of crafting time today, in between soccer games. I made a card using this week's Make it Monday #88: Positive and Negative Die Cuts. This is such a cool and easy technique for adding dimension to a card. I am also submitting for this week's CAS-ual Fridays CFC 76: Kraft On.
I started with a die cut vase from Mega Gracious Vases. I stamped with Pure Poppy and then stamped again with the Crackle Background stamp in Versamark. I embossed with UTEE a few times to get that vase nice and shiny. You can see just a bit of the negative die cut from Turning a New Leaf.
Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps: Mega Gracious Vases, The Sweet Life, Turning a New Leaf, Asian Fusion
Paper: Kraft, Vintage Cream, Sweet Blush, Pure Poppy Pattern Pack
Ink: Simply Chartreuse, Hibiscus Burst, Pure Poppy, Memento Tuxedo Black
Other: UTEE, Dies: Turning a New Leaf, The Sweet Life, Mega Gracious Vases
Thanks for Visiting
