Hi everyone, today for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I am sharing with
you a few tips on how to get dimension into your Dies cuts.
My card today uses Maja Design papers, I started by cutting out my Stacker layers
and tattering at the edges with my scissors and tearing out small sections of
the paper and inserted my lace style die cut for detail.
My butterflies were all cut out twice and I moulded the
wings to give shape with my fingers. I pressed them into my Versamark Ink pad
and heat embossed with a Pearl Embossing powder. Whilst still warm I held my
wings so they stayed curled as they cooled and would then constantly remain in this shape. This is a great way so your wings don't flatten especially if
posting a card.
My flowers I sprayed my die cuts with a little water and
moulded each petal in a concertina effect. I next dried with my heat gun and
then teased my petals back out to show the crinkles and shaped the layers on my
Embossing mat then added a Pearl and Stamens into their centres.
I accented my Doily top and bottom of my card adding half
a flower onto them and used the matching mini Doily behind my centre butterfly.
