Dies R Us: thinking of you..

Apr 6, 2018

thinking of you..

Happy Friday, friends! I’m glad you’ve stopped by today! I’m super excited to be sharing my first post as part of the Dies R Us Design Team. I'm super excited to be a part of this amazing Design Team.

For my design this week I die cut a panel from a bristol smooth paper with the largest die from the Penny Black Antique Frame dies. I placed the Memory Box Calais Butterflies die across the panel and die cut them out partially.

I masked off the butterflies and ink blended Worn Lipstick, Tattered Rose, Squeeze Lemonade, Twisted Citron Distress Oxide inks onto the panel.

I removed the masks and blended the oxide inks onto the butterflies using the same colors to give them a soft ombre look.

To finish my design I added a few water droplets, splatters of ink to match the Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick Oxide Inks. The sentiment was stamped with black ink and heat embossed with Clear (EP). I adhered the panel onto an A2 Side Fold Neenah Solar White card base.

To end my post, here's a recap of the supplies I used from the Dies R Us store for your convenience:
