As promised, I have a sneak peek today from the Paper Cuts One Day Special that I'm launching on Hochanda on Friday at 6pm.
I cut the Turtle Doves (dies #1 and #2 together) out of my Gilded background. I cut die 2 out of Coconut White Card and glued the 2 die cuts together using CS Glue in a Woodware Fine Tip Glue Applicator.
I cut one of the corner dies from the same die set out of my Gilded background 4 times.
For my background, I embossed a piece of Coconut White with the Creative Expressions Nordic Tiles Embossing Folder. I dusted with Anti-Static Bag and added CS Clear Perfect Medium Pen around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler. I added CS Pharoh Gold Brilliant Sparkle Embossing Powder and heat set.
I matted onto a couple of pieces of Coconut White Card and added my centre piece using Woodware 2mm Foam Tape. I added my corners using CS Glue in a Woodware Fine Tip Glue Applicator.
I'll be back tomorrow with another sneak peek.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.

Lovely card I do love the Paper Cuts collection. I bought the baubles one from you and am really intrigued to see if you showcase that one This technique would work brilliantly with that one
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card. I love die cutting card that has gilding flakes added.
ReplyDeleteI guess, if one was really frugal and not wanting to waste the beautiful gilded sheet, one could carefully take the waste and paper pierce it within another die cut.

Gilding flakes are my favourite and they are so effective on this card. Thank you Julia.

ReplyDeleteHello Julia.
ReplyDeleteLovely Card. I like this die set, especially the multi-corners. I thought it had a tarnished metal look, really nice. Thanks for sharing.
