I introduce to you:
Isn't this just the most beautiful kit??!! The dies make it super classy and the stencil brings out the fun of it too!! Let's have a look at what I've created:)
This is card is super happy and I think would cheer up just about anyone! I chose rainbow-esque Distress Oxides in the colours Picked Raspberry, Twisted Citron, Wild Honey and Peacock Feathers. By moving the stencil around and only using the clouds, I was able to create this background. I trimmed the panel down using the XOXO Border Dies which leave that beautiful embossed detail!!
I cut the girl with the umbrella out of white cardstock and white heat embossed the sentiment onto the umbrella itself then inked it up with the Twisted Citron ink. I contemplated leaving it like this but then decided to add a bit more colour by cutting it a couple of times with some patterned paper. I trimmed certain pieces to give her a dress and some boots!!

To make the die cut pop a bit more, I simply added a "shadow" by die cutting her out of some grey cardstock. The heart embellishments also come from the dies in this set.
My next card is not quite so "in your face" bright:)! I lightly inked the raindrop portion of the stencil with a combination of Broken China and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks onto some white cardstock and cut it down using the largest die from the More Stitched Rectangular Dies. Again, I shifted the stencil slightly to achieve more of a layered look.
I cut the girl out of white cardstock again, and did two layers of gold heat embossing to give her a smooth, shiny look. I also did the same with the three hearts. I created the ground by using one of the dies from the More Stitched Edges Die Set and heat embossed the sentiment directly onto it. I used foam tape to adhere the sentiment panel and also on the top portion of the girl to give some dimension.
This is such a beautiful kit, I absolutely LOVE it!! You won't be disappointed when you receive it!!

Your cards are so gorgeous, Laurie! I love the colorful clouds on the first one, and the girl in gold on the second is stunning!
ReplyDeleteTwo great cards. The paper piecing on the first card is a clever touch. Especially like the gold silhouette on the second card--just right for this sentiment. tfs

What stunning cards - there's a 60s feel to the girl with the umbrella and the dress and the boots you have given her. Felt very London Carnaby Street! Fabulous cards! xx
