Die Cutting · Gold Foil

Spellbinders | Photosynthesis Collection by Simon Hurley

Hi all and welcome to today’s blog post from Spellbinders, the Photosynthesis Collection by Simon Hurley is a release that is not only stunning the variety of dies and glimmer plate sentiments not only compliment each other but are great for stretching for further cardmaking use.

For today’s card, I have used Must-Have Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set, Floral Stems Etched Dies, Modern Stripes Glimmer Hot Foil Plate and Ceramic Vases base Etched Dies from the collection. For die-cutting all the florals I used a pattern paper watercolour pack. For the background panel, I added gold foil stripes with the Modern Stripes Glimmer Hot Foil Plate as an added element to ground my floral die-cut floral arrangement. I kept the rest of the card very clean and simple leveraging the colour arrangement of the florals with a similar pink background matting panel.

Spellbinders | Photosynthesis Collection by Simon Hurley

Hi all and welcome to today’s blog post from Spellbinders, the Photosynthesis Collection by Simon Hurley is a release that is not only stunning the variety of dies and glimmer plate sentiments not only compliment each other but are great for stretching for further cardmaking use. One thing I love about Spellbinder is that I can always mix and match every collection so that it is not isolated to just use with each release only but you can continue usage with multiple collections.

For today’s card, I have used Zig Zag Chevron Etched Die, Must-Have Sentiments Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set, Floral Stems Etched Dies, and Ceramic Vases base Etched Dies from the collection. For die-cutting all the florals I used a pattern paper watercolour pack, I used the Kraft cardstock for the pot plant base for a neutral placement for the florals. I have placed the Chevron die cut over the top of texted pattern paper and mounted on a white card base. All the die cut pieces made for easy assembly on an Oval stitched die-cut panel.

For die-cutting all the florals I used a pattern paper watercolour pack, I used the Kraft cardstock for the pot plant base for a neutral placement for the florals. For ease of mass production, I also made gold, teal, and rainbow foil sentiments. The reason why this was easy to mass-produce as it comes with coordinating dies. I am not usually one to make sure I have coordinating dies for sentiments as I can use my cutter bee scissors but the convenience was pretty awesome. I am not going to lie, I have loved having coordinating dies in this instance. I mounted the vase, sentiment and floral die cuts onto a white circle stitched circle die on a woodgrain background pattern paper from my hoard vault.

Paper Rose Studio | Artsy Print Card

Hi all, welcome to today’s blog post for Paper Rose Studio. Have you seen the latest Paper Packs from them? I couldn’t wait to play with their new Artsy Print paper collection. I love the artistic look every page brings. I have mixed today’s card with the Etched Bloom 2 die set and added colour by ink blending them with Distress Inks Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet and Squeezed Lemonade. To add glam to the card, I die-cut some leaf foilage with gold glitter cardstock. I mounted the floral arrangement on a circle-scalloped die cut of white cardstock. I used the pre-printed sentiments from the Big Sentiments 1.0 A5 paper pack. To finish the card off I added some Clear Crystal Shaker mix for embellishing.

Paper Rose Studio | Watercolour Protea Bouquet

Hi paper crafters, welcome to today’s blog post for Paper Rose Studio. I have made a watercolour card with the stunning Slimline Protea Bouquet gardens stampset and heat embossed with Super Fine Metallic Gold Rich embossing powder on white watercolour cardstock. I watercoloured the image with Altenew Brush markers in a variety of colours. For the sentiment, I die cut the Hugs die 3 times and heat embossed the top layer with Royal Emerald embossing powder. To finish the card off, I added some Crystal embellishments throughout the card front.
