How to say Happy Birthday with Fresh Cut Stems Dies – Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Sep 26, 2022 | All Occasions, Card Ideas, Challenge, Step by step

Welcome to the Crafty Collaborations Crafty Challenge blog hop. I am part of an amazing group of demonstrators from all around the world. We love showcasing the wonderful products which can found in our suite of catalogues. This month we have a colour challenge and I am thrilled to share two cards I made on my Facebook Live this morning.

Colour Challenge

So this month our theme is to create a project using these pretty colours

Happy Birthday with Fresh Cut Stems

The colours from the challenge really said flowers to me. With just two days left to grab you perfect Partners dies it seemed timely to chose the Fresh Cut Stems Dies for todays projects

Concentrating on the dies that are in additional to the ones cutting the outlines of the stamped Images it was fun playing with some of the potentially overlook dies in the set

Happy Birthday with Fresh Cut Stems – Twigs & Sprigs

Using just two of the dies, this simple card is just so elegant and pretty.

The small bud was die cut three times and then coloured using blending brushes

The edging die really adds some wonderful detail to the card.

The second layer of Smoky Slate has been embossed with the Sprigs and Twigs Embossing Folder. To highlight those pretty leaves, gently wipe the Whisper White Craft Stampin’ Pad across the raised areas to make them pop!

Happy Birthday with Fresh Cut Stems – Stitched Greenery Dies

Using a similar layout this card uses more of the dies and and has been paired with the Biggest Wish Stamp Set

This time the Smoky Gray layer has been ‘die cut’ using the Stitched Greenery Dies which create such a pretty detailed back ground.

The die cuts have been arranged around the sentiment and for a little additional bling a Sprig Trinket was nestled into the arrangement.

Voila!
