Hi Everyone!
Today I have a creation made for the Dies R Us Inspiration Blog!
Today I have a creation made for the Dies R Us Inspiration Blog!
The card I have made is designed using dies from the Dies R Us Store.
If you've not popped over to the Dies R Us Store recently, DO IT NOW!
So many newly released dies that you won't want to miss out on.
And, OH MY GOODNESS the sales they've been having!! Of course if you aren't already signed up for their newsletter, you'll want to do that because that's they only way you will be informed of the AWESOME unadvertised sales that you can participate in and get some amazing deals ... great for gift giving too!!!
Anyways onto today's card . . .
The dies I have used in the creation are:
Sue Wilson Frames & Tags - Stitched Flags - CED4317
Memory Box - Gift Wrapped Poinsettia - #99478 which is unavailable at the present time but very similar to
Memory Box - Poinsettia Ribbon - MBD-99182
Cheery Lynn Designs - Poinsettia Strip - #B324
AND Cottage Cutz - Elegant Poinsettia Spray - CCE-036 which was purchased through one of those special Newsletter Sales I was telling you about at the start of this posting.
Sorry I have no photos of the 'process' in making this card! Hubby was working on my computer when I was creating and I totally forgot to take some photos along the way ... so distracting when he's in my cave but sometimes it's necessary! LOL
Here are a couple close ups that you might like to see . . .
Even though the Memory Box Poinsettia ribbon has the poinsettia as part of the die, I did two things ... I colored the pieces that cut out (petals) using Tim Holtz distress inks and reinserted them into the die cut ... but also die cut, sponged and shaped a poinsettia from the Cheery Lynn Designs die strip and placed on top to give it more texture and dimension.
The little green viney pieces were cut from the Cottage Cuts die (didn't use the flower ... just the vines).
I used two of the stitched flags from the Sue Wilson set to create my
sentiment panel. A touch of gold stickles add the sparkle that is always necessary
for a holiday card!
