Welcome back and today I have another card to share with you today that was quick and easy to make using just a couple of dies and an embossing folder for more texture and depth to the background. I had coloured a beautiful foiled floral image with Copic markers and because there is no coordinating die I decided to use the Amazing Paper Grace Bella Luce Oval Etched Dies to die cut the image out with an oval die and make it the centre piece of the card.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

For my card I have created a side folding 5″ x 7″ card out of white cardstock.

I then cut a piece of brushed gold cardstock 5″ x 7″ and matted it with white cardstock before adding another layer using brushed gold cardstock and an embossed a layer of white cardstock using the Amazing Paper Grace Orange Peel 3D Embossing Folder with fun foam. I then added gold ribbon to the four corners before adding the entire panel to the front of the card.

I then die cut the decorative frame from the Amazing Paper Grace Bella Luce Oval Etched Dies out of white cardstock and then die cut a shadow frame out of brushed gold cardstock. The gold frame was adhered behind the decorative frame and then was added to the card front with foam squares.

I hot foiled the press plate from the Better Press System with gold foil and then coloured the image with Copic MarkI die cut the coloured image out using the inner plain oval die from the Amazing Paper Grace Bella Luce Oval Etched Dies and then I die cut the decorative inner frame out of white cardstock before adhering it to the coloured oval image. This was then added to the centre of the frame.

I hot foiled the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Glorious Glimmer Elegant Occasions Hot Foil Plate in Aura foil on Hammermill cardstock before die cutting it with the coordinating die. I then die cut another two plain dies before stacking the dies together with the foiled sentiment on top. The sentiment was then added to the frame using some foam tape in the centre of the frame to keep the sentiment level.

I added a gold ribbon bow to the top of the oval frame and pearls to decorate the decorative oval frame and also the decorative oval over the coloured image.
