'Happy Birthday' card
'Thanks' card
These two cards came from one base. First I blended three pink Distress inks onto cardstock.
After I had die cut the shape, I used some Press N Seal to keep all the little pieces within the frame of the die cut. I then added little pieces of tape to all the little pieces of the die cut.
I removed the cover on the double sided tape on only some of the pieces. Flipped the piece over onto a card base and the pieces with the double sided tape uncovered stayed on the card and the others stayed on the Press N Seal.
I then peeled off the rest of the tape covers, flipped the whole piece and again pressed down onto a card base.
Here you can see the card bases for two cards and the negative die cut that I will use on another card. Each card has the pinks going up in gradients of intensity in colour but don't look overwhelming.
Finished off with a gold glossy cardstock 'Happy Birthday' and 'Thanks'.
I would like to enter these in:
