I received several new dies in the last week and I wanted to take them for a spin. I started with a piece of Bashful Blue (a rarely used color in my repertoire). A piece of Everyday Enchantment DSP was put through the Big Shot using the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder, unfortunately not very well seen here.
To that, a Small Window die in Bashful Blue was attached with mounting tape. The flowers were made with a Fancy Blossom Die. To make them curl up a bit I used a stylus with a small tip and applied a light circular motion to the center and the petals magically curl up. To the center a small rhinestone from Jewels Basic Rhinestone was applied. I find it easier to apply these with the tip of an Xacto knife. Works like a charm. I strategically cut the Nestled Bird to ensure that the little stars would be in the middle of the DSP. The hello is from a ProvoCraft die cut in Riding Hood Red.

Oh, I finally get to see the whole thing, and it's soooooo sweet!!!! Who wouldn't love to get that pretty "hello" in the mail? You know that I love my dies, so I will do my best to complete the mission!
Wow Julie this is so gorgeous and I think it is my favorite card of all. Not that I am surprised because your work is always so creative and you explain your techniques so very, very well. I am going to try the same technique and see what I come up with. Keep up the fabulous work dear friend... I can hardly wait to see what you come up with next time.
