Putting It Together

The background die cut for this card actually made two cards, one for the positive and one for the negative. The positive is a Unicorn birthday card: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2017/08/birthday-unicorn.html.

I wanted some texture in the die cut background so I started with a stencil. I used the Circular Lace stencil with Cosmic Shimmer on a white panel.

The lace pattern is gorgeous with a bit of texture.

I ran the stenciled panel through the Big Shot with the Floating Hearts background die.

I separated this into the negative and positive. The positive I used on another card.

To put the negative into place, I put removable adhesive on the back of the positive and secured it to the panel.

Like a puzzle, I put the negative pieces into place. I then carefully removed the positive.

The negative shows the coloured panel behind it.

I die cut some fun foam and used removable adhesive to secure it to a scrap paper.

I squished the foam words with VersaMark...

...and covered them with embossing powder. After heat setting the embossing, I added 2 more layers of the VersaMark and embossing powder.

I added the words to the centre of the card face and added pearls and enamel dots (not pictured here).

Inside, I stamped a sentiment from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps with Watermelon.
