Make It Monday #146 Angled Backgrounds

The first of my Valentine cards! 

     I cut a piece of white cardstock, 4"x 5.25" and covered it with red & white washi

     tapes laid at an angle. Die cut 3 hearts from panel and attached it to a top folding

     A2 card. Using the same 3 heart dies on silver cardstock, placed them inside

     washi tape panel negative spaces and added 3 silver sequins. The sentiment

     strip was stamped, the heart colored with a crimson Berol Prisma color pencil,

     and mounted with foam dimension tape

.

Ink Pad Designs

Ashley showed two cards using the uniquely shaped PTI ink pads to color 

the cardstock on her cards. I used little cat eye ink pads, using a mask to keep

it inside the circle. The die cut wreath was stamped with violet ink, leaves

colored with a silver Sharpie and purple/violet Sharpies for the berries. Then a spray

coat of the Shimmer Spritz to make it shiny. I added the ribbon to make it more like

a Christmas ornament mounting it on a silver A2 card.

Inlaid Die-Cuts

        With PTI's Mighty Oak Die I first die cut a kraft sheet.

        Next used the same die to cut a 4.25 x 5.5  piece of ivory

        card stock removing all of the leaves and tree. 

       The kraft negative die cut sheet was laid over a top fold

       A2 ivory card and various leaves were stamped with Hero Arts shadow inks.

       After removing the kraft sheet, I glued the ivory die cut sheet to the A2 card

       aligning all of  the leaves to show through their holes. Then inlaid the

       kraft die cut tree which had been stamped with gold ink to give it

       some shimmer. Text is from the Mighty Oak stamp set. Voila.

Die: PTI Mighty Oak

Stamps: PTI Might Oak

Ink: Hero Arts Shadow Inks: Butter Bar, Soft Sage, Soft Wheat,

                                               Soft Cantelope, Just Rust, Cup O Joe



Yay! it's your birthday

TRENDY TRIANGLES

I finally unwrapped my new PTI Cover Plate: Triangles Die

and embossed it with the Big Shot on white cardstock. Used

PTI Trendy Triangles Mini Stamp set with various Hero Arts

Shadow Inks to create the rainbow look. PTI Birthday Sentiments

used on banner. Mounted it on Bazille aqua cardstock, a score line

frames the panel.
