Hello Everyone and HAPPY 4th of JULY
to all my USA Friends & Family!!
Today I have a card to share that was created for my beautiful, young neighbor Bethany's bridal shower. Her wedding is July 29th and the neighborhood is all excited and so happy for her & James!
I also had my Dies R Us Inspiration Blog DT commitment in mind when creating this card so you can find today's creation shared today on their blog. For awesome inspiration using die cuts, you'll want to be sure to pop over to this blog often. There's a new inspirational creation posted DAILY!!
The dies I have used on today's creation are:
(These are large so be sure to check the size shown at the store.) |
While
die cutting my Sue Wilson 'Stitched Lattice Frames' (which i was going
to keep all white), I decided on creating a color panel for the
background that tied in with her wedding colors. Plus this gave me a
chance to play with my Tim Holtz oxide distress inks again lol.
Once
dry, I simply 'inlaid' my colored panel and 'overlaid' the lattice
panel on top. I like the hint of color in the background ... just what I
was looking for!
I
also wanted to add dimension to my bride & groom so I die cut it 5
times (glued 2 of them together before I thought to snap a photo lol)
from scraps of white card stock and glued them together. Turned out
almost like a chipboard piece! Looked awesome ... give it a try!
AND, how much fun is it to combine dies like I have for today's sentiment. I'm always looking for new ways to use my dies to create something different and by combining these two word die sets I can happily say I was able to do that today!
