Hello there. I am the host for the new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz. I chose the theme of ‘use die cuts and/or punches‘. Here is my card:
And so continues my fascination with die cutting and layering – all that fiddlyness – I think I made a new word!
These tile dies are from Spellbinders, and I die cut a whole bunch of each – the diamond background, the floral elements, the gold stars – and assembled them before I even thought about how I was going to put them on a card base.
I decided to go a heart shape as I could use a lot of the tiles – even though you can see I had some left over.
The background is a dry embossed panel – using the deboss side – and matted onto a black rectangle to make it pop a little more.
The sentiment is a debossing sentiment, which I quite like the look of, especially in gold.
There was enough going on with this card so I didn’t even think about adding extra gems or enamel dots.
I hope you can come and join us with your creations following our theme – I look forward to seeing you in our gallery. xx

When I saw this in the pages ready to be posted I knew it was gorgeous, but it shows up so much better on this post. It is lovely and the design is unusual and interesting. Lots of die cutting but the end result makes it worth the trouble.
