This die does two different things ... it has the usual areas of cut-out design, which are the scrolly silver bits of the card, but also has flowers and leaves that are partially die-cut leaving them attached. Very cool! I allows me to colour the flowers and leaves and then pull up the edge to add dimension.
I used zigs to watercolour the flower and leaves. Silver foil paper is behind the die-cut that you can see through the cut-out scrolly bits. :) So very pretty! The sentiment is silver embossed to go with the silver foil paper.
Here's a close-up ...

ReplyDeleteGorgeous Loll, your water colouring is stunning on those little die cuts :)
ReplyDeleteOMG..Loll, Gorgeous die cut corner PB flowers and scroll design. I Love how the flowers only get partially cut so you can pop up a bit. Elegant with the silver foil peeking thru the die cuts. Your Zig coloring is beautiful too. Can you share the name of the PB die? I saw the name for the beautiful sentiment. Thank you so much for sharing my dear friend. Love and Hugs, Nancy
ReplyDeleteI looked for the die on PB, but could not find. Maybe it is no longer available.
Love the way you used the silver foil behind the die cut - and what a neat die cut with the bits that are still attached and can be pulled out. A great card!

ReplyDeleteWow - this is amazing. Your coloring and stamping make this die come alive. Wonderfully done. Hugz
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty die, I love how it adds dimension to the flowers xx
ReplyDeleteWhen I look at the card I have the impression that these realizations are ombre and only the description explained that it is a silver foil. A wonderful idea for combining silver and hot shades of orange and green.
