I have had this die by Paper Rose for some time but this is first time that I have used it. I began by cutting three layers of the tulip frame and stacking them. I then embossed an image onto a piece of card to see where I should add colour, which I did with two shades of Distress Oxides in pink... Worn Lipstick and Spun Sugar and one in green... Bundled Sage. Once I had coloured it, I sealed it with some clear Ranger Distress Glaze and then die-cut the coloured pieces and inlaid them into the frame die cut..
I happen to have several sets of dies from Presscut and there are 30 odd circles in this particular set, increasing very gradually in size, so I was able to find one which matched the diameter of the Paper Rose die to make the aperture behind it. I stamped a few splatters on the base card and then popped both that and the frame onto dimensional pads.
The sentiment is by Mama Elephant.

Lovely card!!That die is so pretty! Thank you for joining us at Heart 2 Heart!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card....I am a little confused. Why did you need to inlay the colored pieces when you have the embossed image that you colored? Was it preference or were you not careful with the coloring after embossing that piece...and therefore needed to die cut and inlay the pieces????
