As you may know, I love all things rainbow, so when I saw this
Rainbow Floral Washi Tape I knew I had to play with it! This washi tape makes it so easy to put a card together since it saves you all the time that you normally would spend coloring it first. And then the dies align so perfectly with the designs on the tape that you can mass-produce the die cuts so quickly. What a brilliant idea!
For this card, I stacked the die cuts from the
Rainbow Floral Washi Tape on top of a couple of blank layers of the dies and then glued them in somewhat of a rainbow order on the card front, leaving room for a sentiment along the side edge of the card.
I then just finished the card with coordinating rainbow pearls that I used from my embellishment stash.
For this next card, I decided to stick to a few colors even though I was using the
Rainbow Floral Washi Stamp Set. I began by stamping the images out using watermark ink and then heat set the lines using gold embossing powder.
To create the see-through window I used a circle die on the front panel of the card base. I then covered the opening using the wreath image and then added the floral die cuts all around the panel, cutting off any excess that hung over the edge of it.
To complete the front of this card I glued some
purple jewels on the berry-like buds. On the inside of the card, I stamped out a couple of sentiments that come from the
Floral Vase Stamp set.
Since I had lots of extra die-cut finished images I thought I would make another card. This time I glued the pieces onto a purple cardstock card panel that I had die cut a diamond opening from the center of it and the card base using the
Nested Diamonds Die.
Finally, I added the same
purple jewels to where there were some open spaces to complete the card front.
And last but not least, is this beautiful see-through die-cut card made using the
Dahlia Washi Tape Card inspired by one of Jennifer McGuire's recent videos using die-cuts to create a see-through card front.
To do that I die cut all the
Dahlia Washi Tape pieces using the coordinating Dies. I then laid the pieces out and overlapped the edges of the dies. I also used a Nested Diamonds Die that I cut from Gold foiled cardstock as a guide for where the center of the card panel would be. Once I was happy with the layout I glued the overlapping pieces together and trimmed off the edges to create an A2 size panel. and then created a hinge on top of the panel to attach the die-cut layered front panel.
