Hello, and welcome to the Essentials by Ellen Winter 2016 Hop! I’ll be showcasing several of the new stamp sets and dies on my post today!
For my first project I used the new Up The Happy stamp set, and Up The Happy die set.
To begin I cut a piece of white cardstock and created a stripe distress lines using post-it as a guide, then sprinkled gold ink on top. Then I stamped the sentiment "the world is super lucky to have you" at the bottom of the card.
Next, I stamped the butterflies image on a white cardstock then watercolored. I also white heat embossed the butterflies as well and die-cut some of the clouds from the set.
Next, I adhered the pieces with foam tape on top of the card panel and finish it off with Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins.
For my second card I used the new Bed Of Roses die-cut and Brushstroke Hello die-cut. For the leaves I used the stamp and die-cut from Mondo Hydrangea. For the sentiment I used the All Inside stamp set.
To begin, I first distress the card panel with Distress ink. Then I die-cut the Bed Of Roses 3 times this will help the die-cut to become more prominent on the card. For the leaves from Mondo Hydrangea I white heat embossed it on a vellum and die-cut with its coordinating dies. I also die-cut the Brushstroke Hello from a Kraft cardstock and distress the bottom to give it that ombre look.
The "hi, there" sentiment is white heat embossed on a black strip of cardstock.
Next, I adhered the piece on the card and added the Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins to finish off the card.
I hope you guys enjoyed!
