Simply Said - You Mean the World to Me

Hello Blog friends - I  could not resist sharing another project I have created for you using another Die from the Spellbinders  Simply Said Collection.  If you missed yesterdays post you can see it HERE.

This wonderful You Mean The World Die does not need anything but the Die,cardstock,adhesive  and in this case a little patterned paper and ink.The intricate designs do all of the work and allow us to create an easy card with the WOW factor!  I have to add here - perfect for the 'dreaded man card' too.

I have cut/embossed the You Mean The World using the  Platinum™ Die Cutting and Embossing Machine. Before removing the cardstock from the Die the top part of the sentiment and the embossed frame have been sponged using a darker brown ink and Sponge Dauber - my daubers are kept 'fully loaded' so are quite a mixture of colours - loving the current shade!

A small scrap of paper from my stash has been adhered behind the world globe - believe it is a retired Basic Grey piece.  Blue cardstock has been added behind the 'world' sentiment.  A recycled map page has been adhered behind the Die cut and this has been popped up using 3D Foam Tape onto dark brown cardstock that has been cut slightly larger than the patterned layer.

It is as easy as that - I did tell you it was easy - didn't I!!  

This card is linked to the following challenges:
