Dies R Us: Cat Tail Sunrise

Mar 16, 2018

Cat Tail Sunrise

Hello friends ...
Darlene with you today and I've created a birthday card

that I think could be used for either a man or a woman!

I recently purchased this Memory Box Cat Tail Sunrise die and couldn't wait to create with it!

The first thing I did was die cut it from white card stock then color it using my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.

Next I wanted to create my background. So, using a 4x6 panel of watercolor paper, I die cut a large rectangle using the Tutti Designs 'Cross Stitched Nesting Rectangles then got busy with watercoloring both panels. The outside panel using Tim Holtz Oxide 'Amber' and the center panel using Tim Holtz Oxide 'Broken China'.

YES ... did you know DRU now carries inks, papers, adhesives, etc?

Be sure to pop over and check it out!!!

Once I put my panels together and adhered the Cat Tail Sunrise panel,

I decided to make it a birthday card and used the Penny Black 'Your Day' birthday greeting die.

Next came the Cheery Lynn Designs 'Lace Corner Deco E' corner embellishments. This set of corner dies happens to be one of my favorites. They are just the right size and there are THREE different patterned dies in the set. How cool is that!!

Remember, if you ever find the die you want is Out Of Stock ...
