It's my day over on the Cheapo Dies Blog and I created a card celebrating a wedding using the
Rose, one of the exclusive dies from
Cheapo Dies.
To start off, I ran the card front of my card base through my Xyron machine so that the entire area would be covered with adhesive. (You could have also used a sheet of double sided adhesive.)
I die cut the
Rose multiple times and randomly laid them onto my cardbase. Once I had a pattern that I was happy with, I made sure to burnish the die cuts onto the adhesive using the piece of release paper created from running this through my Xyron.
Next, I covered the entire front with
Waterscape glitter and burnished it into the exposed adhesive with my fingertip.
The sentiment (from the stamp set
Ornate Greetings by
Sparkle N Sprinkle) was stamped with Distress Oxide (Peacock Feathers) and heat embossed with
Clear embossing powder. A strip of coordinating ribbon was adhered to the card front and then the sentiment on top of that. Since the ribbon itself is dimensional, this gave the sentiment an added lift without having to use pop dots.
