Concord & 9th Heartstrings dies
Faber Castell Gelatos
Lawn Fawn Happy Birthday die
Hello there! Spring is just around the corner, the cold snowing winter is about to pass. I know Spring fairy is working hard to bring color to the garden. This is how I picture my garden will be again... full of the vivid color..... all thanks to the Spring fairy, not me. lol So happy to be chosen as a guest designer on Crafting by design for the March 1st anything goes challenge. Today I am sharing one of my favorite stamp and die: Hello Lovely clear stamp set and heartstrings dies. Enjoy~ I choose happy birthday sentiment not only to celebrate the start of the Spring season but also to give a shout-out to all the friends and "me" who were born in the month of March. ^^ Happy Birthday~~ <Here are some of the behind the scene photo> I choose to use Faber Castell Gelatos for it's texture and easy to blend with water. I draw some line on the leaf and use water brush to blend the color, also purposely to leave some texture and bleed outside of line. While waiting for the watercolor paper to dry, I die cut few of the heartstrings die from Concord & 9th, these blank die cut will be add it to the card later. The same heartstrings die again places on the main flower to cut the shape out. Then flip the card over to take out just the outer heart. You can see I put the washi tape on the die to make sure the distance between outer and inner die stay the same through out entire card making process.... Because of that when I add the blank heart die cut, it will fit exactly into the same space. Once the first blank heart die cut is in place, I seal entire heart with double adhesive sheet to secure every pieces. So when I flip over if any piece fell out(hoping not all of them) I can easily put it back. Luckily when I flip it over , just two pieces are needed to place it back. ^^ With all the pieces in place, the rest of the blank heart die cut is applied with glue and stacked on one by one. The last die cut shape will be placed on the top is the die cut from the original drawing. Lastly adding some embellishment and Happy Birthday sentiment, the card is completed. Thank you for visiting my blog~ Happy crafting! Supplies:
