Sneak Peek: March Die Cuts
Hello friends! Angelica here, and I’m so excited to share with you a few cards featuring new products from Pretty Pink Posh Mach Release. Today I am focusing on a couple new dies. Let’s get started!
How beautiful is this butterfly? The Bold Butterflies die set comes with two butterflies. I used the larger of the two to make this first set of cards. I added double-sided adhesive to the back of several colors of card stock, sticking to a pinkish-peach-coral theme. I die- cut all the colors with the butterfly. I also die-cut 4 dark pink butterflies with no adhesive on the back. I traced the butterfly onto two pieces of white card stock, then cut the shapes out a bit smaller than the traces. I glued the white shapes to the backs of the pink butterflies. Next I started filling in the wings with cuts from the other die-cuts. Putting adhesive on the backs of the yardstick before cutting made this process easy and clean.
After I finished filling in the wings, I used a shimmer pen to add sparkly to all the different colored card stock. I attached the top pink butterfly by gluing only the body, and then bent the wings slightly. I die-cut the butterfly two more times out of black glitter paper, and fussy cut the bodies away from the wings. I glued the black bodies onto the top. To assemble the card, I used the rectangle die from Stitched Notes die set to cut Neenah Desert Storm paper. I stamped and heat embossed with white embossing powder a sentiment from the new Peacock Friends stamp set. I added the rectangle to craft foam, then attached the panel to an A2 card base. I glued the butterfly above the sentiment.
I made the second butterfly exactly the same for the second card. For the background, I blended a bit of Scattered Straw Distress Oxide ink onto white card stock to give the butterfly a nice glow. I stamped a sentiment from Birdie Friends with black ink, and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
My second card showcases the gorgeous Spring Frame die. This is the first large frame die with a design for Pretty Pink Posh. Isn’t it beautiful?
I die-cut this frame two times out of white card stock. Next I pulled out a rainbow of Copic Markers and started coloring. Once I finished coloring, I used my paper trimmer on the second die cut to trim off all the flowers and leaves and glued the frame onto the colored paper.
On light blue card stock I stamped and heat embossed with white embossing powder a sentiment from Simple Sayings: Life stamp set. I then blended Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide ink around the edges. I glued the blue card stock to an A2 card base. I added foam adhesive all over the back of the colored frame, and attached it to the card base.
My final touch was adding a few Sparkling Clear Jewels around the sentiment.
