Hero Arts Spring Catalog Blog Hop: Three Cards, One Die

 

Hello Crafters!

Today I have three cards using the same Secret Garden Fancy Die. Not only can you color it up and use it as a beautiful floral frame the center pops out to be used together or separately! It's also a wonderful textured background for a gorgeous focal point. 



For this card I ink blended a rainbow of reactive inks before splattering on some water and Hero White Iridescent Shimmer Spray. Once it was dry I die cut it using the Secret Garden Fancy Die. Adhere to a white card base, stamp and sentiment, and you're card is done! 



The inside of the die cut was used to create it's own card. I stacked the die on another die cut out of white for some lift before adhering it to my card base. Sweet, simple, and oh so pretty! 


For this card I copic colored the large flower bouquet from Wonderful day and then used the Secret Garden Fancy Die in all white to add some texture to the background. The sentiment was white heat embossed on black this time for a bolder look. 

You can see all three cards come to life in the video below. 






In addition to the fantastic catalog products being released Hero Arts has also announced their Spring Stamp Along. Of which, I am so blessed to be teaching with all these amazing designers! 
Early bird pricing is available through March 15th. Check it out here

  17. Great idea to create two cards using positive and negative pieces. Love when you can make the most of supplies. Also, your Wonderful floral is beautiful. I thought it had to be a layered stencil to get that rainbow coloring the way it was. Very impressive that you colored with Copics! I really need to work on my coloring-haha.
