I always say, Die Cutting is My Jam, so maybe this should become a series! I like creating backgrounds with unexpected dies, and today’s card does just that! I took the SSS Splendid die and cut a bunch of those from Neenah 110lb cardstock, and cut it once from gold cardstock. I also cut a panel using the PFS Diagonal Stitched Rectangles to use as the background. I had to play around with the placement before committing to adhering the words onto the panel with liquid glue.

Once all of the white words were adhered to the panel, I trimmed off the excess and glued the gold sentiment in place. I used the SSS Splendid Sentiments and stamped the additional sentiment using VersaMark Ink and heat set those using Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder. I trimmed those down and adhered them to the panel using SSS 3D Foam Strips.

I used the SSS Abundant Leaves to cut those from Neenah 110lb cardstock and did some ink blending using SSS Pawsitively Saturated Inks in Sprout and Seafoam. Those were then adhered to the panel with liquid glue as well. The panel was adhered to a black panel for contrast before being added to the card base. For some additional bling, I added some PFS Gold Metallic Pearls to finish up.

That does it for this installment of Die Cutting is My Jam! I like the sound of that! Anyhoo, I hope you enjoyed this project, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space. Thanks again for joining me today, and don’t forget to stay awesome, friend!
