Lovely Roses Background

As you all know I love creating backgrounds and the Rose Garden Thinlets Dies cut as a mask create a beautiful background. I used three colours Rose Red, Calypso Corsal and Rich Razzleberry and the sponge daubers to ink through the mask.

In This World Dimensional Card

I here quite often how difficult it is to do masculine themed cards or gender neutral for people who don't like pretty pretty cards with flowers and ribbons etc. In This World stamp set has some lovely stamps which lend themselves to this type of card.

I used three pieces of whisper white cardstock, stamped the sentiment in the smallest layer then laid them together so I could stamp. Using dapper denim and crushed curry I used the graphic stamp to create the background, then mounted on dimensionals to create height. I then stamped three keys from this set and fussy cut and coloured in crushed curry, you will need a craft knife to cut the centre of the key. Then using some hessian/burlap ribbon split to give individual threads I threaded each key and mounted with dimensional pieces round the card.

The effect is simple and non fussy yet stunning and ideal for masculine cards.

Creating Backgrounds with a Number of Years

When you purchase a stamp set and die combination it is always good when you can use this set in many ways. Number of Years is a great set for specific birthday and anniversaries as the numbers have a beautiful font and with the coordinating dies make it really easy and professional.

However the flowers and other stamps make a great background

So I stamped the images in Rose Red, Calypso Coral and Rich Razzleberry and the dots in Archival Black ink pads and then cut them in three pieces and mounted on a piece of Rose Red cardstock.

Now to the dragonfly die cut from the Dragonfly Dreams bundle and embossed in gold and white to give depth and dimension.
