Wplus9

Wplus9 is celebrating their 4th anniversary this month. High time I used the Quilt Cuts 2 die that I have been hoarding for quite some time now. I thought it would be fun to try out a technique that Jennifer McGuire was showing a few days ago.


In the picture below you can see the dimension I added by adhering 3 layers on top of each other. I stamped the sentiment (Fancy Basics by Hero Arts) once on the white cardstock panel (Neenah solar white) onto which I had splattered a mixture of reinker (Picked raspberry by Ranger) and Perfect Pearls (Ranger) and a second time on the die cut shape (before taking the individual pieces out of the die cut square). Of course, I could not resist adding a little glamour and sparkle using my Wink of Stella marker and a few sequins.


I'm entering this into the following challenges:
Wplus9 - Step it up (adding dimension)
CASology - 82 Bold
The Card Concept - 3 Use monochromatic pink
(entry #2 in the Clean & Simple category)
Sweet Stampin' - Sentiments only
Seize the Birthday - Anything birthday goes.
Shopping our Stash - 138 Oh, shiny! (entry #2)
Hero Arts - Happy Birthday (category: Anything goes)

  12. I love the layering to create dimension, I've just recently tried it as well. It takes a little more time than dimensionals but gives it a little different look. Beautiful card!
