Hi friends! Happy Monday! Please join me in welcoming special guest Cathy Zielske! Read on and be sure to watch the video for more information and enjoy!
Hi everyone! It’s Cathy Zielske here with a new clean and simple card project to share with you today. This technique is really quite easy and lets you add any color you have in your ink collection to your die cuts.
The new Cosmos Stem is a lovely, embossed die-cut, that also cuts out the center of the flower, and I thought that a few of them would look really nice together, layered over a bit of simple ink blending and topped with a greeting banner created using my brand new Clean Line Everyday clear stamps. The result is a very soft, serene card project.
With just a few inks and some blending brushes, I quickly transformed my plain die cuts into soft, lovely flowers. For a bit of added dimension, I covered the centers of the flowers with a bit of Tonic Nuvo Crystal Glaze.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I’ll see you again soon with another simple card project!
This is so pretty! I have the daisy die from this same release and might have to get this one as well. Also, thank you Cathy for designing such fantastic simple sentiments in this stamp set, as well as the birthday one from the latest release. I made TONS of cards this weekend with the birthday stamp images, and I love the clean, simple look of the sans serif sentiments. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that there’s more to come!
Just my kind of card–love this! The Cosmos die is already on my wishlist & now I’m adding your sentiment set! Not sure I would have thought to snip off one leaf–great reminder to alter things as needed for the design! I’m with you on adding the Nuvo Glaze before putting the card together, although I have to say it’s the best product! So much easier to use than GA. Thanks for the inspiring video!
