SLICE OF PIE

Hello! I am so pleased that you have popped by today.

Today I have a card that features the Sweets & Treats Stamp Set and Cloche Dies.

For this card I stamped and fussy cut the pies and pedestal base. I used these to help me position the cloche die in the positon you can see above.

The Cloche Shaker Dome was attached to the inside of the card. I placed one of the cut pie images to a piece of White Vellum before attaching to the inside of the card.

The remaining pies were then added to the card front. I didn’t just stamp them because I wanted to create a subtle element of dimension.

I stamped the greeting and trimmed it to this size. A short length of coordinating Diamond Weave Ribbon was folded and tucked under the greeting panel.

I was surprised by how much the Cloche Shaker Dome reflected the view from my craft room.

That’s better – less reflection in this photo.

The Diamond Weave Ribbon is gorgeous. It almost resembles macrame. It has great texture.

I am looking forward to making more projects using the Domes!

Have you ordered this bundle? Do you have projects that you can share?

Until next time, happy stamping.

AMAZING

Hello to each of you amazing crafters who pop by to see what I have been up to.

I hope that you will leave a comment to let me know where you are from and what you think of each project.

Today’s project is an ‘amazing’ black and white card.

I discovered a wonderful ‘little’ die in the Cloche Dies bundle and knew immediately what I wanted to use it for. The Black Glitter Paper was perfect for this card. After I attached a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the back of some glitter paper, I cut several of the pieces – as you can see. I marked some centre lines, lightly in pencil, to guide where to place the pieces evenly from the centre outward. This has achieved an amazing sense of curved movement across the front of the card.

I attached these pieces to Shimmery White cardstock to ensure a continuity of ‘bling’. The centre front panel was adhered to a panel of Black Glitter Paper and then onto the card base.

The sentiment, from the Create with Friends Stamp Set, was stamped in Versamark with Black Embossong Powder sprinkled over it. After heating the embossing powder, I fussy cut the sentiment. A few cut down Stampin’ Dimensionals ensured it could be popped up for some added height.

I decided not to add anything else to this card – I think this enough. Your thoughts?

The card insert and envelope also have the die cut piece attached.

Less is more, is often a wise approach. This card is rich without being too complex.

I would love you to share your thoughts. Who would you send this card to?

Happy stamping.
