Celebrate Your Special Day – Floating Frame

 

Hello and welcome

After I watched some YouTube clips on  Floating Die Cut Frames ( Jennifer McGuire),  I decided I’d like to give it a try.  So when I saw the challenge over at Laurie’s Ink to Paper Challenge asked to frame a sentiment, I thought it would be the perfect project!

I grabbed one of my favourite stamp/ die sets – Harvest Berries from Papertrey Inks and away I went.

I started by die cutting the images before stamping them with a variety of green inks from Altnew and Memento.

After stamping my sentiment, from MFT Birthday Greetings set,  in the centre front of the card using Brilliance Lightning Black ink, it was just a matter of arranging the die cuts around the sentiment.  I chose not to cut out the centre, but rather allow the dies to form a natural frame.

Each die cut was added with a small foam square and trimmed along the edge of the card!

To finish, I added a few strokes of clear Wink of Stella to each leaf and some red Nuvo Drops. So difficult to see the little sparkle on each leaf which is so pretty IRL!

I was really happy with the end result!

Thanks so much for visiting.  I really appreciate your time.

Have a great week

Cheers

Helen
