Pretty in Plaid, Whimsy New Release! ...

Hello everyone!

Happy New Year, wishing you all a happy and healthy 2019!

Not only do we have all the excitement of a new year, we also have three days of new release fabulousness from

wonderful

Whimsy Stamps

I'm starting the week off with probably my favourite of the cards I've made to show you the new release goodies!

I have used the beautiful background stamp

Buffalo Plaid Background Rubber Cling Stamp

and

Thanks Word with Shadows Die Set

To make my card I stamped the Buffalo Plaid Background Rubber Cling Stamp with an embossing pad and heat embossed it in white (The white heat embossed ink resists the colour from the Distress Inks).

Then I blended Distress Inks on top of the embossed plaid background - I used Evergreen Bough, Worn Lipstick, Shaded Lilac and Scattered Straw which are quite delicate and look gorgeous together.

I used two square dies together to die cut a white frame and fixed the frame to the background.

Next I die cut white card with the Thanks Word with Shadows Die Set and blended Evergreen Bough Distress Ink over the word thanks.  I fixed that to the stitched edged die cut shadow and then fixed the die cuts to the bottom right hand side of the card design as shown.

Finally I added some glitter dots to the card design in similar colours to the Distress Ink.

I think this is just so pretty and delicate and is an effect I will definitely use again!

Thank you so much for popping by!
