Card #1

For my first card I used a bunch of Wow Embossing Powders to create this fun scene with this adorable crabs from kat Scrappiness. I started with the water, I used the Waves Border dies from Kat and Under the Sea Wow Embossing Powder. I then created the sand with the Winter Dies by Kat and and sprinkled a little of Perissa Embossing Powder. The night sky is made with Black Magic Wow Embossing, it looks super amazing! I added this panel to a base I created using the Stitched Postage Edge Rectangle I colored the fun crabs from the Summer Gnome add on stamp set, for the sentiment I used this funny one from the Summer Gnome set.

Card #2

For my second card I used the Kat Scrappiness Foliage Frame die and the Happy Easter Word die, I cut the Easter and leave only the Happy word. The Wow Colour Blend Verdigris is an amazin embossing powder full of texture and different colors it can totally be my favorite!!!

Card #3

For my card #3 I used the also super beautiful Wow Under the Sea Embossing Powder, I diecut the Under the Sea cover plate by Kat, I put embossing ink all over this background die and added the embossing powder. I wanted to give it a sandy look to do that I used Vintage Photo distress ink only on the edges. I also added some pearls. To create the background I used kraft cardstock and inked it with blueprint sketch and speckled egg oxide ink. I used a gray a cardbase, for the sentiment I used MFT stamps products.

Card #4

For last card I used again the Under the Sea cover plate from Kat and I added Wow Bang Embossing Powder... I have to say this embossing powders are just magical!! the colors, the textures! Wow just Wow.

Die Cutting Technique

Hello Friends Welcome back for another Wednesday Project...using Brutus Monroe stamps and products, every Wednesday you can find a blog hop at the Brutus Monroe blog featuring a product or technique of the week! The Design Team works very hard to share great inspiration with you!! You can find the hop HERE. This week we are sharing Die Cutting Techniques. Today I will be focusing on a very fun fold card design.

CARD DETAILS:

Coordinating Dies and stamps can be used in many different ways, for today's card I created a window trifold card. I started by cutting two A2 cards and glue them together. I then ink blend the three panels, I used the coordinating die of this set to cut a window on the front and second panel, I used the first cut panel to cut the second flap by putting the die inside the first panel to fit like a puzzle into the other card so they can be in the exact same spot on the card.
