How to Use a Diecut to Create a Beautiful Watercolor Background and Make Two Cards

Using an oldie but goodie set of dies from the Annual Catalog as a mask, I created the watercolor background on the card on the right. Then I used the die cut to make the card on the left. This background is so easy to make and I love how the flowers look with the thinner line die cut from the dies overlaid on the background. I love this color combo, too! Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay, and Misty Moonlight.

Fun and Easy Friendly Hello Card

Hi Friends! It has been a while since I have posted on my blog and I have missed sharing my creations with you! I had a lot of challenges in 2021 (including a hospitalization with Covid), but I am getting back up to speed on things.

Today I wanted to show you a quick and easy card I made using a Sale-A-Bration stamp set and DSP. Sale-A-Bration ends at midnight PST on 2/28/2022 so time is running out for you to get this cute stamp set and gorgeous DSP. And I've got a great deal for you for the next few days - until Sale-A-Bration winter 2022 ends.  Place a minimum $50 order in my online store by midnight PST 2/28/2022 using host code XRF3AKZJ and receive a FREE card kit from me with all pieces needed (except stamped images) to make the card in the video PLUS a special gift. NOTE: colors and patterns of DSP may differ from those used in video.

You can see the card that I made below. Grab the project sheet at the link below (just above the picture), providing all the measurements and a card template you can use to create similar cards using any supplies you have on hand! I love using card templates as a starting point to create. It's so much fun to add your own spin on the design.
