CARDS FEATURING
PAPER ROSE BANNERS & STARS DIE #17664
Today I am sharing my first project for the Paper Rose Design Team.
When I received my first beautifully wrapped package from Paper Rose containing
so many lovely dies
and stamps I was feeling a little overwhelmed...to say the least!
I
didn't know quite where to begin...
So I decided to
just get back to basics & start making some backgrounds
that I could use
for my cards.
I pulled out lots of my
spray bottles both with mica & matte finishes.
Went crazy spraying recycled white
packaging collected from previous craft purchases.
The different
surfaces of the packaging absorbed colour in various ways
making some cool
effects.
A few remained sticky in some areas so on these I randomly rubbed gold foil sheets, for some WOW factor.

I have tons left
over to try with other dies in my stash like these Circlet Layered dies above.
Will share what I created with those dies soon.
But today I am featuring the Paper Rose Stars & Banners & their lovely Sentiment Dies.

One of the
backgrounds stood out to me as looking like the night sky,
so I decided to
combine it with the Stars & Banners Die (#17664) & Best Wishes sentiment
from the Bush
Babies Accessories Clear Stamp set (#17532).
I decided to use an inlay technique to really show off that Galaxy background.
I die cut a 'Ranger' adhesive backed silver foil sheet twice so I had some extra pieces for embellishing.
The galaxy piece was cut to 6 x 5 1/2" & the die centered & cut out of the background.
Once I attached the die cut background to the matting card it was easy to inlay the silver foil pieces like a jigsaw.
The matting card measured 6 x 5 3/4" with sparkly silver tape applied to the edges.
Slightly elevated with foam & mounted on a 6 x 6" white card.
The sentiment was
stamped in Versamark Ink then heat embossed with Silver Pearl powder.
Finished off with Liquid
pearls dotted over the surface as highlights
& a few extra
die cuts applied to the card front & the envelope.
I
continued the Banners & Stars diecut theme for the rest of my cards.
Above is a very
striking inlay card paired with the elegant Layered Congratulations die (#17646).
For this card I applied double sided adhesive sheets to the coloured card before die cutting
to allow easy application for the inlay technique.

My final card features the Banners & Stars die cuts that have been heat embossed
with Black Sparkle embossing powder to give a dimensional effect.
The die has also been used to create an embossed impression on the white card front
with Black Sparkle embossing powder to give a dimensional effect.
The die has also been used to create an embossed impression on the white card front
by using the Sizzix
Crease pad in my Big Shot Machine.
The beautiful layered die cut sentiments from Paper Rose are so effective. (#17631)
Especially as the background layer of 'Birthday' was cut from mirrored card stock.
Extra banners, stars & the matting card were all heat
embossed to match.
These cards are
elegantly simple in design, but quite a variety of techniques & products
were used to create them.
Hope this inspires you to try some different techniques with your die cutting.
Cheers for now
