Hello Beautiful – Layered Roses

Hello, crafty friends and happy Wednesday!! I hope your week is going well!! I have a card to share with you today that has lots of layers!!

I began by die-cutting all of the layers of roses and leaves from bristol smooth cardstock using the Radiant Roses Layered Dies. To add color to them, I sprinkled Color Burst Powders onto my glass mat and diluted them with water, then drug the die-cuts through the color. To vary the color, I simply diluted the powder more. After all of the die-cuts were colored, I set them aside to dry.

For the background, I sprinkled the Color Burst powders onto a panel of bristol smooth cardstock and sprayed it with water, then set it aside to dry. I die-cut the top layer of the Diamond Plaid Layering Coverplate Die Set from white cardstock and adhered it over the background panel. The roses and leaves were arranged and adhered as shown.

For the sentiment, I stamped the Ribbon Affirmations Stamp Set onto white cardstock with Caribbean Turquoise and Hot Tourmaline Inks, then cut them out with the Coordinating Dies. “Hello” is also from the Ribbon Affirmations set. It was stamped with Hot Tourmaline Ink and trimmed into a rectangle. I adhered the sentiment over the roses and background and called it done!!
