Card Layer Pop Out & Inlaid Die Cut Cards

August 28, 2014

20140827_094522

Happy Thursday! Today I am over at Top Dog Dies Blog to share couple of project featuring one of the new August release dies. Two cards were created using the Dog Days #2 die set and I am going to show you how you can use them in different ways to achieve CAS look. I especially love Dog Day Die Sets (TDD has #1 and #2) since they cover verity of sizes and you can do so much with them!

For the first card I am using this cute Schnauzer die from the Dog Days #2 die set. Lots of people usually pop out the die cut piece, but for this card, I decided to pop out the whole front layer of the card. I used a patterned paper with gray background and small white heart pattern and adhered it onto the card base. Next, I die cut the Schnauzer piece using a white cardstock and attached the negative piece onto the card base using some foam tapes. This is a great way to pop out a die cut image in a different way!

For some more cuteness (since the dog is already so adorable!) I tied a small bow using some red baker’s twine and attached it to the dog’s neck. I think this is super cute! I stamped the sentiment, cut it out, and attached it to the card layer using some foam tape as well for more added dimensions. Super easy and fast!

For the second card, I used this elegant, chic poodle die cut piece from the Dog Days #2 die set. Instead of using the die cut piece or the negative cutout piece alone, I decided to do an inlaid die cut technique. This is another great way to pop out the main die cut piece for the card. I used a very light pink cardstock as a card base and used white cardstock for the card layer. For this look, you will need to cut the die twice – one with the white cardstock layer and one with a patterned paper of your choice. For this one, I used some pink with white polka dots patterned paper to match the card base’s color.

All you need to do now is to put the card layer piece onto the cardstock first, and lay the patterned paper die cut piece right into the open area of the cardstock layer. They will fit perfectly – I used foam tapes for both pieces to create dimensions for the card. This technique is super fun and easy!

To dress up our elegant poodle image, I added few small rhinestones around the neck area. This adds a very nice finished look to the card. For the sentiment, I stamped it and cut it out with some white margin around the sentiment. Then I attached it to the card using some more foam tape, and then I added more dimensions using Glossy Accent right on top of the sentiment. Once it dries, it gives this nice shine with some dimensions. Another great way to finish off CAS card!

I hope you enjoyed today’s projects. Thank you so much for stopping by and have an awesome day!

    Happy Holidays and for those who are celebrating, Merry Christmas- Many of us are spending today in an unusual way this year, and many of us are also remembering those we lost. I ask that you keep others in your thoughts this holiday season 💕 sending hugs and loves to your way ❤️❤️

Made cookies and cheesecake brownies for our next door neighbors who are spending today alone. I added a little touch with stamps and inks to dress up the cookie boxes 🎁

    Happy view 🥰🥰 New ink storage system for my office/studio desk. I wanted the most used inks right at my fingertips and these Alex drawers hold them perfectly. I am keeping both full sized and cubes together, along with 1 mini cube blending tool for each color family. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 #scrapsandstamps #inkstorage #craftroom #craftroomorganization #homestudio
    Good morning and happy Saturday lovlies!! 👋🏻👋🏻 I just realized my last post about 3-4 months ago was a glance at my studio. Lots of things happened in the past few months and Ive been just too stressed out that I lost my desire to craft. 😣Its been a rough yr for everyone and Im ready for a new start! 😍 Are you?? Im going to start working towards getting some routines where I can feel better and add creativity back to life. Why wait till Jan? We can start now 💕

I just moved and finally got around to finishing up my studio. Im such a perfectionist that it took me a while to get everything where I wanted. 😅 Im happy how it turned out and grateful that I can still have a place to work and craft. Im excited to share projects with you soon 🥰🥰🥰

    Took a couple of days off this week to recharge - mental break helps a lot! 👍🏻 While I enjoyed stay-home break, I finished swatching all of #danielsmithwatercolors - now I’ll build my own palette from these and start doing some watercolor with them. Seeing all these made me really happy 🥰🥰 Swatching watercolors are one of my fav ways to distress. What creative projects are you working on this weekend?? #watercolorswatches #watercolor #danielsmithwatercolor #danielsmithartistsmaterials #colorswatches

    I decided to do something new and challenging during this #stayathome time. Took a beginner calligraphy class by @piecescalligraphy and I cant believe how fast 90min went by!! 😍😍 I have a lot of practice to do but really enjoyed learning. These are some of the things we did. My p’s are pretty horrible 😂😂 Cant wait for the next session!

    Happy Monday everyone- 💕💕 I was itching for a change so the other day I moved things around a bit in my studio. (This happens more often than not 😂) Even just a tiny bit of change can bring a big difference and give a fresh feel to your daily norm. Controlling what we can and not losing hope 🙏🏻 I wish you a fabulous and lovely week ahead 💙

    More therapeutic watercoloring session - I find taking the time to color each image with watercolor really helps me to relax. I think it has to do with a slow moving, soft transition of the pigments and water.

This card was made using a brand new #altenewstatementflowers stamp set and #altenewspringgarden
