Lovely Lily Pad and Lily Pad Dies

Here’s my second card this week using the Lovely Lily pad and Lily Pad dies which you can get for free during Sale-a-bration as supplies last. Between them they need an order of $150.

I’m really enjoying the challenge that I’ve set myself to use the same product all week and to use different parts of it. The Lovely Lily Pad stamps are reversible and I stamped the one side in blushing bride and then the other in rich razzleberry after which I cut them out with the dies.

I had a piece of silver foil embossed with the Hammered Metal embossing folder and I decided to use copper foil to add bling to the side of the card. Then I used copper embossing powder for the sentiment which comes from the So Sentimental stamp set and was then cut out with the matching Stitched so Sweetly Dies. Both the background for the sentiment and the card base are rich razzleberry.

Lovely Lily Pad and Lily Pad dies

I decided to play with the new freebies that I’d selected out of the Sale-a-bration brochure – Lovely Lily Pad and Lily Pad dies.

I used the dies to cut out 2 rows of the teardrop type shapes and then used the Beads and Baubles TIEF to emboss the rest of the top layer. They go together perfectly. I mounted this on a night of navy cardbase and then turned to the stamp set. I found that the reversible stamp is very easy to use – and ensures that you clean your stamp promptly! – but it isn’t totally symmetrical so you get an artistic look. I diecut the lily and popped it up with dimensionals.

The sentiment comes from the So Sentimental stamp set and is cut out with the matching dies – Stitched So Sweetly – but you can of course use a sentiment from your stash.

Detailed Hearts die and Sprinkles

Here’s my second card this week using the Detailed Hearts die. I cut it out again in very vanilla but this time used the Pigment Sprinkles to create a fun background.

The sentiment comes from the really versatile Peaceful Moments set. It has 10 sentiments covering most occasions (151595, $21). I stamped in melon mambo and then cut it out using the much used Stitched Rectangle Dies (148551, $35). My multipurpose liquid glue was handy so I used little dots of that to fix the die cut to the card – the fine tip glue pen would have been easier of course!
