Happy Tuesday everyone! Lisa here, with a fun fairy hello card. The fairy isn't even the star of the show, the layered background dies from Birch Press are!!! Check out how Dazzle-ing they are.
So let me tell you how this card even came to be. I was going to do something completely different but I got some new cardstock and when I saw these three colors together, the card just kind of blew up from there.
I found that the layers were missing something, so I cut the top out of black glitter paper instead of the textured cardstock and added it on top for dimension. I don't find the centers of these dies really need a lot of adhesive, so instead of putting adhesive on the paper before cutting the dies, I just put Scor Tape all around the frame and a few pieces in the center. Easy Peasy!
I wanted to add a fairy, so I pulled out my Tutti Designs Mini Fairies set. I had a hard time deciding which one to use and where to put him or her.
My card needed a sentiment so I pulled out an oldie but goodie, Lawn Fawn Scripty Hello. I decided here to cut off the flowers in the hands of the fairy on the left. I wanted it to look like the fairy was holding the greeting.
The final finishing touch it needed was some bling! I used three sizes of clear AB gems to accent the sentiment on the card. I love how it came together.
I hope this card inspires to check out all the amazing Birch Press layering dies that Dies R Us carries. They're so fun and versatile. --Lisa
