Decorative Dies

 

Trying hard to get back my mojo... so I've had some fun with Dies today

I've three challenges to join

Just Us Girls - Die week #791

Darnells IDEAS prompt - "D" for Dies

 Group of Cardmakers are using Dies to create Embossing

I have a set of wavy edge border dies --- so after I die embossed and cut one from white card to attach to the front of a card, I used the offcut and embossed it with a different edge and quickly I had two cards started. 
For my first card I blended yellow Distress Ink behind the wavy edge to create a spotlight to display my favorite die cut daisy... watercoloured with Distress Inks, and to finish stamped on a sentiment


My second card had a simply die embossed edge and thinking to add a block of colour I used some aqua blue mulberry paper flecked with gold threads.... which made me think to use some die cut gold leaves.  I also die cut a butterfly from glittery aqua card and added some matching gems... used these also to help hide the dobs of glue to hold down the mulberry paper... lastly a die cut 'smile' from my stash to finish.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, have a wonderful day, cheers Robyn
