Did you know there are several products in the catalog that are just on their own?  Meaning, they are not available in a bundle; they are not apart of a product suite; they do not  have a coordinating stamp set.  

Let me introduce you to the ICONIC DIES!  Look how cute these are.  I have absolutely No idea why, but those mushrooms stood out to me and I just had to get this die set.  Yep!  No matching stamp set for this one.  Odd right… well, sometimes I do purchase dies or a punch and not the coordinating stamps so I was just as happy.  

Iconic.

I made a couple of projects to share…

Card 1:

  • I die cut 3 of each flower on Basic White card stock.  MAKE SURE to put Adhesive Sheets on the basic before you die cut.  Adhere those to a 4-1/8 x 5-3/8 piece of Basic White.  Snip off extra flowers hanging over the edges. 
  • Using Blending Brushes, blend on colors Pumpkin Pie, Mango Melody and Daffodil Delight.   The edges of flowers will pop as it catches extra color.
  • Mount to Pumpkin Pie card base 5-1/2 x 8-/12 scored at 4-1/4
  • Heat emboss in White, your sentiment, on Basic Black card stock.  Fussy cut around words and mount to card front with Dimensionals. 
  • Add some gems for bling!

Card 2:

  • Card base is standard A2 size of Thick Basic White card stock
  • On a piece of regular Basic White that is 4-1/8 x 5-3/8,  use Blending Brushes to blend the same three colors I use on Card 1.  
  • How did I get that oval?  I took a piece of scrap paper, same size as above;  die cut an oval, laid it  over my Basic White card stock, creating a mask and sponged the color.  Remove the scrap paper  to reveal the oval
  • Die cut the bird and branch, again making sure to use Adhesive Sheets and adhere to card front
  • Heat emboss words with white powder on black card stock and adhere with Dimensionals
  • Add some rhinestones for some bling!

Note:  I accidentally used a retired stamp set for my words but you can obviously use anything you have on hand
