New release day at Picket Fence Studios (this and following links are affiliate links) today! And I’ve got a fun card to show you. I’ve used the new 1.5″ Connected Squares Shaker creator die to create a diamond shaped pattern of windows for the cute girls from the The Best Dirt stamp set. I deliberately chose a completely different colour for the sentiment this time. The sentiment is from the Espresso Yourself stamp set. To finish off I used loads of foam pads to raise the panel and then some sequins from the Lake Tahoe Embellishment jar.
Here is a close-up of the colouring and the die cut windows for each girl.
There is a new Picket Fence Studios release tomorrow. Are you ready for it? Today I want to show you want of my favourite dies from the past release, the Tropical Cocktail Shaker die, so you know to grab this one as well tomorrow, together with the new stuff. I’ve made one card with it as a shaker cocktail, and one using just the plain die.
First off I’ve cut out the glass loads of times and glued them together to make the shaker card. The Cosmo sequin mix was perfect for it. I then coloured up the little pieces with my Copics. The background behind is just a fun play around with various glaze. For the bottom layer I ran this rich, deep coloured card stock together with the Tree Bark 6×8 stencil through my die cut machine to get a lovely embossed look. The sentiment has used the same coloured card stock to match in with the sequin mix I used.
Here is a fun card using just the plain outline die. I’ve cut it out in different colours and glued them partially on top of each other. I’ve kept the card mostly white to make the die cuts and embellishments stand out, so the sentiment is kept neutral to go with. View the list of all the products at the end of the post.
I love the little girls Mo of Mo’s Digital Pencil draws up and Sofie here is no exception! Isn’t she sweet where she’s holding her little doll? It seemed like the perfect stamp for a 2 year old, so I printed out a blue number who with the stamp. While colouring up the girl, I also gave the number a bit of shading.
Then I used a Papirdesign stamp saying Happy Birthday in Norwegian on top before die cutting the panel using a Mama Elephant die and some Altenew enamel dots.
