Die cut inlay

Todays blog is the card I made from the panel I die cut the sentiment from for Fridays card…

The panel was watercolour card I had used to mop up distress oxide off the desk with using greens and blues.

I mounted the panel onto black cardstock, popped a sentiment into place that I die cut from black and then added all the middle elements back in too.

As the black card was only thin I die cut it another couple of times to stack them up until it was the same level as the thick water colour cardstock.

Next I took some leaves I had die cut from the glitter cardstock scraps using the Zero Waste leaf die and added those to the space underneath the sentiment. I wasn’t sure what central element to add but then remembered all the yellow roses I had already stamped and die cut so used one with two leaves to finish off. I did have to add some foam under the centre of the rose as the leaves are also stacked die cuts and it was wobbly otherwise.

Then I found these sparkly green gems in the stash and added them.

Love how this was made from leftover ink and the remainder of other projects and makes a dramatic but beautiful card with the artsy background!

Happy crafting!
