Trio Lily Birthday Wishes

4 Comments

Hi all! Vera here today showcasing more layering die cut idea.

Today, I am playing with the lovely Lily Trio Layering Coverplate Dies.

For this card, I started by die cutting all the 4 layers from white cardstock. Then I inked blend Orchid Crush & Grand Fuschia to the layers. I only used 2 colors for the bottom 3 layers. Simply by varying the pressure and intensity of the color I can get 3 different shade.

I was debating on what color background I want to use. I tried several different colored cardstock and just not quite happy with any of them, so I decided to do a watercolor background. Can’t go wrong with watercolor in my book. 🙂

Once it dry, simply adhere the layered lilies on top of it and adhere everything to the card base. For the sentiment, I used sentiment from Easy Expressions from my stash. I love how handy this sets are. From just doing it once, I can have lots of extra sentiments ready to use.

Lily is definitely one of my favorite flower to play with. They’re so fun to color and simply so pretty. I’ll be playing with more variation of colors for sure. Now, if only I have more time in the day. Hah!

Well peeps, that’s all from me today. Hope you enjoy today’s card and may your week be a good one. Cheers….

Unicorn & Daisy

Hi there! Happy Thursday everyone. Vera here and I am bringing you some springy inspiration.

When I saw the Lavish Donuts and Unicorns bundle, I literally gasp with delight. I think it’s one of the coolest  set ever. It’s o fun playing with this bundle!!

Here’s my 1st card for today using the bundle.

I stamped and heat embossed the ears with rose gold embossing powder on a cardstock panel. Then I stamped the flower wreath  and adhere it to the panel with pop-dots. Once that done, I stamped the eyes and stamp and heat embossed the horn with gold embossing powder. Adhere the whole panel to the card base.

I don’t want to put a big sentiment that could distract from the unicorn face, so I chose a simple sentiment from Anemone Bouquet set. At first, I was going to leave the card the way it is, but then I thought it looks a bit plain. And, unicorn cannot be plain, right? So, I added a little pink blush for the cheek and add some shimmer to it and to the eyelash. Hope you could see it on the close up picture.

Next, I play with the new Daisy (3/4 View) Close Up. I love daisies. For my wedding, which by the way, the day before we just celebrated our 10th anniversary, I had a daisy bouquet. It was perfect for our tropical wedding at Playa Del Carmen.

I stamped and heat embossed the daisy with rose gold embossing powder on a piece of watercolor cardstock. I love the way this card turned out. It’s totally make me think of spring and bright sunshine. Finished by stamping a sentiment from Dearest Peony set on a strip of cardstock and adhere to the card with pop-dots.

Now, this last card I have shared on my Instagram before. But, in case you missed it, I thought I should post it here as well. If you’re interested, you can follow me on Instagram: Wirianta.
