Hello friends, Eloise here and today I’m sharing a card using the Dahlia Mini Frame Die Set along with Lingo Thanks Stamp Set and Lingo Type Wow Die Set as well.

I started off with die cutting the layered dies from different colours of Cardstock. Two A Dies from yellow and pink, Two B Dies from cream and Two C Dies from yellow and pink as well. I adhered them together and layered them on top of each other.

I cut down a cream card base and adhered my frames over the top. I then die cut the word ‘Wow‘ from grey cardstock and also the inner piece from blue. I adhered them together with liquid glue and added foam tape onto the backs.

Lastly, I white heat embossed the ‘So Happy For You’ sentiment from Lingo Thanks onto a piece of grey and added foam tape to the back as well. I then adhered them into the centre of my frames and that finished up my card for today.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, and I’ll see you next time.

Hello! Today I am featuring the Rectangle Dot Layer Dies to create this very simple thank you card. I just love the dots on these dies. They kind of remind me of bubbles!

This die set come with 4 dies. I cut out each die with card stock from my stash. I then stacked them and adhered them to my card panel.

For my sentiment I used the Big Lingo Type Thanks die and the Lingo Thanks stamp set.

I adhered my sentiment with some foam tape for dimension.

Hi and thanks for stopping by! Today I’m sharing a card I made for my son. He is 23 and loves bold graphic designs. I knew the Prismatic Triangle set would be perfect!

Whenever I use a layered die set I like to cut the first layer into the card base. This makes it easier to line up the die cuts because the first layer is going to fit right inside the die cut opening.

I inlaid all the colored die cut pieces in the bottom layer. Where the color intersect I added a color that was a combination of the two. Just as an example, between the green and yellow triangle (where they overlap) I inserted a touch of lime.

The Prismatic Layer B is cut from gold glitter paper, and I’ve added a gold matt to frame the cover panel. The Big Lingo Type Hugs is cut from white and purple card stock colors. The letters are removable so you can insert whatever colors you like.

The Prismatic Triangles are beautiful and look amazing in any color combination you can imagine!

Finished Size 4.25 x 5.5″

Hello!  Today I will be featuring the lovely Dahlia Mini Frame Layering Die.  This is a thin delicate die that looks great on its own, but I wanted to create a shaker card with this die.  Thin dies can sometimes be difficult or impossible to create shaker cards with, but I will show you how with this die.

I first cut out each layer with 3 coordinating pieces of cardstock.  Layer A is to the far right, layer B is in the middle and layer C is to the far left.

I then glued each layer together.  Next, I took my card panel and traced the dahlia frame onto my card panel.  I carefully cut out the center of the card panel.  After cutting the center piece out, I added acetate to my card panel, then adhered my dahlia layers onto the acetate.

By doing this, I now have the space to add my foam adhesive to my card panel.  Add your favorite sequins.

For the back of my panel, or what will be showing through the shaker piece I ink blended some Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink.  I peeled off my foam backing and adhered the backing to my panel.  I then glued my panel to my white card base.

I used the Big Hello Sugar Script Die for my sentiment.  I seriously can’t get enough of these Big Sugar Script dies!  They are awesome and make mass producing so easy!

I hope you enjoyed this card and it got the wheels turning on how you can create shaker cards using these gorgeous thin dies.

Hello Everyone!

I am back with another project!  This one will play tricks on your eyes…  For today’s project we will be using the Line Fade Stamp and Die Set.

We want to start our project off by creating to blended backgrounds. I chose to use my distress oxides on white card stock. Using a blending tool, I created two rainbow pattern panels. You do not need to go for a perfect blend but you just want to make sure there are no white spaces between the colors you chose.

After your panels are blended you need to make sure they are dry before our next step. Now remember if you use Distress Oxides these are a pigment/ dye mix so they take time. I used my heat gun and time to allow them to dry completely. You can use your embossing powder to make sure they are ready.

Chose your stamps for your panel and grab your ink you use for your embossing. When you stamp your images you want to stagger the placement so you get all spectrums of the blended background.

After they are stamped you are ready to apply your embossing powder, I started with my white and then my other panel I used my black. A fine detail powder will work best for these because these lines are pretty detailed on the stamp set! Heat set your images.

Once they are all set, now we get to die cut our images. Grab the dies that coordinate with your image and run them through your die cutting machine. You see the visible differences between the to sets even though we used the same blended background! It’s the embossing powder that is creating this illusion! Cool right?

With our pieces die cut we can now set them up on our Standard A2 size card bases.

I used liquid adhesive and double-sided foam tape to give my strips dimension. I also made sure that the colors showing were flipped around from each other.

Now there is always a space you have after you design your card, so we can just add that to the inside of the card!

For my sentiment I chose the Big Lingo Type Thanks Die. I cut one in white and the other in black but only using the background piece. Our white sentiment was applied on the outside of our card.

The black sentiment I placed inside the card to add to the dramatic look and feel of this card.

It will be great surprise when the card is open and they see that bold pop of color!

As always, I hope you enjoyed today’s project… Make sure you stay tuned for more wonderful projects coming soon! Have a great day and always remember… Be Creative!

Hello friends, Eloise here and today I have a rainbow watercolour thanks card to share with you all. I used the Lingo Thanks Stamp Set as well as it’s coordinating dies to create this look.

I started off with a piece of watercolour paper and ink blended a ton of Distress Oxide Inks onto the background in rainbow order. I did this very roughly and messy since it doesn’t matter how it looks.

(Distress Oxide Inks Used: Squeezed Lemonade, Fossilised Amber, Spiced Marmalade, Abandoned Coral, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Salty Ocean, Twisted Citron)

I then took a piece of acetate, sprayed it with water and laid it overtop of the ink blended panel. This blended all the colours together seamlessly. I then die cut the coordinating die of ‘Thanks’ from the Lingo Thanks Set from the panel seven times, die cutting them straight down.

Once all the thanks were die cut, I stamped the coordinating stamp on top and white heat embossed each of them. While I had my supplies out I also white heat embossed a couple of additional sentiments onto black strips.

I added foam tape to the backs of each of them and adhered them into place on top of each other onto a natural white card base. I then added more foam tape to the additional sentiments and adhered them into place as well.

The video is linked down below.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I’ll see you next time.

Hello everyone! If you love coloring then the Wishing Mandala stamp set is just for you!
During the month of February, this stamp set is on sale as our February Item of the Month for $34.99 and includes a set of matching layering stencils!

Hi there, it’s Tracey here today and I have a bright and cheery thank you card to share with you using the fabulous Hex Fade stamp set and dies. This co-ordinating stamp and die set is on sale right now in the Birch Press Design store. These unique stamps are designed to give your creations an ombre look even if you only use one colour of ink.
To recreate this card start out by stamping the longest of the rectangle stamps on to Bristol Smooth cardstock using VersaFine or other watermark ink. Emboss the images using white embossing powder and then cut the rectangles out with the co-ordinating Hex Fade dies.
Using Distress Oxide inks or any other inks that you have, sponge a different colour ink on to the cut out rectangles. For this card colour was added to the images using Distress Oxide inks in Spiced Marmalade, Candied Apple, Mowed Lawn, Mermaid Lagoon and Wilted Violet.
The rectangle strips were adhered directly onto a white card base in rainbow order. HINT–start by placing the one strip in the centre of the card front, then add one strip to each outer edge. Finally place the other two strips in between. This is an easy way to get your spacing correct.
The bright colours over the white embossed rectangles really highlight the ombre effect of this stamp set. Just imagine what it would look like if you were to blend two shades of the same colour on each rectangle.
The ‘Thanks’ sentiment was cut using the Big Lingo Type Thanks die. For this card the background was cut from white and the outline was cut from black. The word ‘sending’ is from the Lingo Thanks Clear Stamp and die set. It was stamped and white embossed from black cardstock, trimmed and then adhered right above the word thanks.
The finished card looks so good in the bright colours and the shine from the embossed images adds extra elegance to the overall design.
Thank you for stopping by to create with me today. The Hex Fade stamp set has endless possibilities. It can be used for almost any occasion and just by switching up the colour scheme or the method in which you stamp the images you can get totally different looks! See you next time here on the Birch Press Design blog!
