I also did some pasting, painting, spraying and stamping on my layout it's kind of mixed media style. well at least that's what I want it to be *grin*.

Follow Your Heart

Hi and Good Morning everyone. Alison here today, and I hope you all had a great start to the New Year!

Todays card uses some stunningly detailed Cheery Lynn Designs dies, and everything was cut from 300gsm glitter card, so how amazing is the crispness and clarity of these cuts!

I started off with a 6 x 6 blank card base and layered pink pearlescent glitter card and K&Co stripey paper. I then cut the gorgeous Shoji Mesh Border, and edged it with the cutie heart fringe die, cut in two separate colours. I then cut two Lattice Heart and Vines and backed them onto shimmering satin paper (they look cushioned in real life), and so very intricate. I added the hummingbird and feathered his wing, and also cut 3 smaller birds for decoration. The sentiment was backed onto the smallest Oval S tacker Frame and finally I added some pearls for a finishing touch.

All dies used on this card are:

B371 - Shoji Mesh Border
B368 - Lattice Heart & Vines
DL252 - Horizon Oval Doily Stacker
B391 - Small Heart Cutie Fringe
B193 - Hummingbird
B266 - Tiny Things with Wings

Thanks so much for visiting our blog today, and I hope you all have a smashing week!,

hugs

Winter eco-card with Irina Gerschuk

Irina Gerschuk 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi my dear friends!
Happy New Year to you and your family! And may all your dreams come true)))
It's Irina Gerschuk with you today.
And today I'd like to share with you my new card. Something I call "winter eco". I take the winter theme and added natural elements with you can find in the park or somewhere else near your home.

I decided that the French Pastry Doily would pop out of the card. I thought it would be an interesting detail and it can show all its beauty. I really love this die. As for me it's so classy and universal, so it can fit almost any project.

Here are some close-ups:

I added some pearls to the French Doily to highlight it.

And Metal Adaptor Plate helped me to make a perfect die-cutting. It's amazing how easy you can create die-cuts with this adapter!

I used:
- French Pastry Doily - DL102;
- Metal Adaptor Plate - S114

And please come and join our new challenge - the theme is so interesting and the prize is lovely)))

And one more fantastic notice! To celebrate the New Year, Cheery Lynn Designs is giving away an ebosser Die Cut Machine! How wonderful is that?)))) All details are here!

Have a lovely day!
And thank you so much for stopping by))
Irina
