BEE Playful Lowercase Alphabet Honey Cuts
Bold Background: Vines of Love - Honey Cuts
White Glitter Cardstock
Black Glitter Cardstock
Low-Tack Tape
- Embossed Backgrounds: Both cards feature backgrounds created using the Aces - 3D Embossing Folder. A TIP to prevent tears in the paper is to lightly mist the cardstock with water before running it through your die-cut machine.
- Die-Cut Letters: The "good luck" sentiment was created using the BEE Playful Lowercase Alphabet Honey Cuts. TIP - For perfect letter alignment, use a straight edge or gridlines to align them, pick up the letters with low-tack tape, and adhere them by flipping the tape like a hinge to secure the letters in place.
- Vellum Layers: Both cards include vellum frames to soften the backgrounds and create dimension. I used two different frame die sets for added variety.
- Background: The embossed areas were enhanced by swiping a black ink pad across the raised portions for added depth.
- Sentiment: I die-cut the letters from white glitter cardstock and ink-blended a soft pink ombre effect onto them.
- Frame: The vellum background was die-cut using the Lovely Layers: Party Frame.
- Embellishments: The central heart was bedazzled with red gems from the Real Rainbow Gem Stickers pack, and a few extra gems were added around the card for sparkle.
- Background: The embossed areas were highlighted by swiping a pink ink pad across the raised portions, giving the card a bold and dramatic look.
- Sentiment: The letters were cut from black glitter cardstock for a striking effect.
- Frame: The vellum layer was created using the Lovely Layers: Posted Frame.
- Embellishments: Red die-cut hearts from the Bold Background: Vines of Love Honey Cuts were added, with a few gems for a touch of shine.
- Prevent Tearing: Always mist your cardstock lightly before embossing with a 3D folder.
- Perfect Letter Alignment: Use gridlines or a straight edge to align your letters, then use low-tack tape to lift and position them easily.
- Blending Gitter Cardstock: Ink blend on glitter cardstock to create custom colors to match, or create an ombre look.
