Hello again, friends! Dee here today sharing a simple to recreate, yet delicately detailed, card featuring the new Arista layering dies!

To begin, I die cut the Arista layers (A, B, and C) from white cardstock, then stacked and adhered them together. Next, I die cut layer A only in 4 different colors of cardstock and adhered each onto an A2-sized card base, trimming off the excess and using that to fill in any gaps/holes for a fuller background.

Next, I adhered the white Arista layers onto the center of the panel, and added gold bobbles for a bit of extra dimension and sparkle! To finish, I die cut the Handwritten Hugs in gold glitter and the outline in white cardstock, adhered them together then onto the center of the card using square foam adhesive.

Simple, right? If you’ve seen my cards, you already know that I love stretching my supplies and using dies to create my own backgrounds. The possibilities really are endless! Thank you so much for stopping by!
