Hello friends, thanks so much for stopping by! I have been catching up with a few Video Tutorials, there are so many good ones out there and we can never learn too much! I was particularly taken with THIS ONE on partial die cutting by Jennifer McGuire - such a fun technique.
I have used the Partial Die Cutting Technique, on an angle using the Spellbinders Floral Mandala Die. I have cut/embossed the top portion of the Die angled onto the left corner of white card stock three (3) times - to layer together - this adds so much dimension, alternatively you can use Craft Foam and Adhesive Sheets.
The bottom portion of the card front has been embossed using Spellbinders Wedding Ring Stitch Em-bossing Fold'ers Quilt It by Lene Lok, this has been adhered onto the lower portion of the Partial Die Cut portion, with a computer generated sentiment adhered between the two portions.
The front of the white card base has been coloured by sponging with Imagine Radiant Neon Inks in Electric Yellow, Electric Orange and Electric Pink using a Sponge Dauber. This is very effective and so easy to achieve. Don't forget to check out Jennifer McGuire's VIDEO TUTORIAL - she explains it so clearly.
