Hi friends! Happy Monday! Please join me in welcoming special monthly Guest *CZ herself*, Cathy Zielske in the latest of our EZ with CZ blog series! Be sure to watch the video to learn all the details on this cute card and enjoy!!

Hey everyone, it’s Cathy Zielske back with another installment of EZ with CZ. Today I’m using a fun celebratory die to create a tone on tone textured background along with one shiny gold version to make the card really pop, pun intended.

This is a fun way to stretch your supplies and get more use out of word die cuts. When you use the same color cardstock for your background and your words, it creates a very cool textured look. I’m using my Pop That Cork die set to create a fun New Year’s card, plus I have some EZ Strips for my subgreeting that work perfectly with this word die.

Here is my tutorial showing you how this card came together.

Think of all the possibilities to put your word dies to use in new ways!

Give this technique a try today! Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you back here with a new installment of EZ with CZ next month.
