For Day 3, we are showcasing the Puppy Friends stamp set and its coordinating dies.
I started by creating the background by using the Slimline Masking Stencil – Squares with some quick-dry dye inks on Neenah solar white card stock. I layered the colors using some blending brushes, making sure they didn’t overlap too much.
I adhered the colored background on some A-2 size notecard.
Next, I stamped the images on some Neenah solar white card stock and colored the images in with Spectrum Noir TriBlend markers. I used the coordinating die to cut them out. I also die-cut the circle frames by combining two dies from the Circle Frames die set.
I foam-mounted the circle frame and my focal image in the middle of the card-front for added dimension.
I finished my card design by adding the sentiment strip that was die-cut and heat-embossed using the Banner Trio die set. Easy, peasy!
Here’s another look at the card:
