I thought I should share a card made with the new Stamps to Die for to match the new Die release from Sue Wilson for Creative Expressions. I started with the Sunflower trail designed to match the shapes within the Indonesian collection.
I stamped the image twice in moment black in and coloured all of one image. I added the sentiment to the second image, cut out the oval central die from the Sumatra die and coloured just those flowers showing in the die cut. I then foam mounted the central oval over the fully coloured image ( all coloured using the Graphmaster alcohol pens.
To make up the card I cut the outline die in the Indonesian background and add the largest die in the Sumatra die to this. I then cut the centre out using the next die in the Sumatra set. I placed the die cut and stamped image, with mounting cushion, in the centre.
I made up the card as shown adding n embossed panel using the dahlia garden 8x8" embossing folder on a piece of DCWV core card.
Enjoy...
Morning John, a beautiful card.
