Today I want to show that Amazing Paper Grace dies are not just for die cutting and layering. For my projects I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Round Doily die as a stencil for ink blending. This die has such a pretty pattern and I was really pleased with how the ink blending has turned out and I was able to get two cards out of the one action which is also very pleasing.
Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.
My Project
For this card I have taken the coloured die and added it to a 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ base card which has been layered with gold and white cardstock finishing with the Amazing Paper Grace Square Picot Petite Die in white on top. I then hot foiled the birthday sentiment from the Elegant Occasions Sentiments Hot Foil Plate set and added it to the centre of the doily with foam squares.
I die cut the leaves from the Sweet Cottage Flowers Dies out of flower shaping paper and coloured them with green inks and adhered them around the left of the sentiment to create a base for the flowers. I made some pink and yellow flowers using the dies from the Cinch and Go Blossoms Dies out of flower shaping paper and placed them over the leaves.
To finish I have made a butterfly from the Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutter Dies coloured using the same inks I coloured the doily with out of vellum and gold cardstock and adhered it to the right abovee the sentiment. Pink jewels were added to add some sparkle to the card.
