Imagine Crafts New StazOn Pads from Tsukineko |
Stencils and Dies Prize Package |
Here's my creation for today:
It is about as close to Clean and Simple as I am going to get. The colors were chosen because of the ribbon, and are actually a much closer match than they appear to be in this picture. I used the Dreamweaver DG 743 Stylized Dahlia die on a piece of Vertigo from Imagine Crafts. This was the hardest thing to do on this project. The dies aren't really designed to cut through thick plastic, but it made a nice score line. I had to use a craft knife to assist in removing the Vertigo. I decided to leave those inside petal shapes attached on top and just bend them outward. I did this to add different colors and textures.
I ran the LG 743 Stylized Dahlia Stencil through my die cut machine with the Stamping Details Rubber Embossing Mat and white card stock. I colored the image with sponge daubers and Radiant Neon Ink in Electric Yellow, Electric Green and Electric Purple. I also ran a little Electric Purple around the edges, both on the cardstock and the Vertigo. I put adhesive under the area that I was going to put the ribbon. Lastly, I added the gorgeous May Arts Solid Reversible Dots (ED-1) Ribbon that started it all.
Just Imagine the possibilities of what everyone else has created!
