So in Love Archives - My Elegant Cards

I decided to have some fun today and pulled out my new So Detailed Thinlits Dies. I didn’t have any sort of card in mind but it became a celebration card which seems fitting for the first day of 2017. Not only did I play with the beautiful new dies, I used the new Falling in Love designer series paper and matching stamp set, So in Love. It’s all part of the new Falling in Love suite. I love the bokeh look of the paper, so beautiful.

I took the colours for my card from the DSP – blushing bride and sahara sand – and cut the flowers using the So Detailed Thinlits dies. Next I stamped my sentiment in sahara sand onto a piece of blushing bride and originally I intended to have the banner cover the complete width of the card, but it just didn’t look right. So I figured out where I wanted the banner and cut the end of it off with the So Detailed Thinlits Dies so that it would match up perfectly. I then took my blushing bride cut out and snipped off the part that helps you use this to make a wrap around card and glued it onto the edge of my piece of DSP. Since it’s a detailed die cut, I used my sponge dauber and silicone mat with the multi purpose glue to gently dab glue onto the die cut eradicating any oozing. After attaching this to a blushing bride card base, I glued on my banner, matching up the cut outs. I love how this came out.

Following the success of the detailed floral thinlits dies, Stampin’ Up! have brought out the So Detailed Thinlits Dies and they let us play with them at Onstage! Here the make and take was assembling a card with a belly band made of a delicate detailed piece cut using the dies and the coordinating stamp set So in Love and the Falling in Love DSP. I was lucky enough to get the stamp set for free and the So Detailed Thinlits Dies and DSP are winging their way across the country to me at the moment and should arrive tomorrow. Can’t wait!

We used a pool party base and used the same ink to add a few flowers to the DSP before gluing it down to the base. The belly band was made out of a die cut piece of very vanilla and another piece which we carefully glued together loosely so that it would slide on and off. The sentiment is in crumb cake and this make and take also features the rather lush Very Vanilla satin ribbon (which I picked out of the box of supplies as it was passed round and round the table for us to share out the goodies) and the Falling in Love embellishments.
