Hello again! I have been absent for awhile over Christmas and New Years but I am going to jump back in to regular blogging and videos again and do my best to be consistent. Today I have a super simple die cut technique that still delivers that WOW look.
As I state in the video below, I first saw this technique done with a stamped piece of cardstock. I decided to make it a little simpler and use Designer Series Paper instead of stamped cardstock. I made a bunch of anniversary cards with fancy DSP designs using this die cut technique and it was pretty fast and easy. The DSP I used on this card is called Flower & Field and is from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. You can earn it for FREE with a $50 purchase. It cannot be purchased directly. You can find it on p. 10 of the Sale-A-Bration Brochure.
The layers don’t show up super well in a head-on picture but you can see them much better in the above and below pictures. You can use any stacking/layering dies, although I do think rectangles work super well. On this card I used the “Stitched So Sweetly Dies”. I really love the stitching along the edges.
I adhered the bottom layer of DSP flat (using Stampin’ Seal or liquid glue, NOT dimensionals), the middle layer using one layer of dimensionals, and the top layer of DSP using a double layer of dimensionals (so two dimensionals stacked on top of each other).
