Here's what I created using the new
Small Leaves die set:
Creative Nugget: This card uses the sketch from the Sketch Challenge on SCS this week. The background was made with several layers of Dylusions ink sprays. The little diamond pattern was sponged through a stencil with Peeled Paint and Gathered Twigs Distress inks. The Queen Anne's Lace from the Nature Silhouettes 2 stamp set was double stamped with Early Espresso Ink to create a shadow and dotted with a white gel pen. The little leaves were die cut from a variety of left over scraps from my mixed media experiments. Some of the leaves were embedded using the Canvas Impression Plate and other were popped up for dimension. The banner was hand cut from Bo Bunny DP and layered onto Early Espresso card stock. The sentiment from the Prayerful Thoughts stamp set was stamped on the hexagon from the Shapes Dies set. A ltttle twine bow finishes off the card.
This next fun card was made with the Shapes Dies!
Creative Nugget: The hexagon shapes were again cut from scraps of DP and mixed media paper and layered onto True Black hexagons...what a good way to use up those scraps! The sentiment and bees from the Bee Happy Rhubarb stamp set were stamped between the hexagon shapes and embossed with the Canvas Impression Plate. Gingham ribbon was tied in a bow around the card front which was matted in True Black and mounted to a Golden Harvest card base. Rhubarb was colored with Copic Markers, fussy cut, and popped onto the card. Stickles glitter was added to the wings to finish the card!
To see my card made with the Wave Dies set you will have to stop back tomorrow for The Sweet Stop challenge where we will have another wonderful sketch to spark your creativity!
