I’m featuring both the Love Balloons and Polka Dot Borders dies. I also incorporated the Bicycle die and the Silver & Gold stamp set. I started by brushing black gesso across the bottom of the kraft card base.
Then I used the medium-sized strip of the three Polka Dot Borders dies along the bottom of the top panel. I randomly pushed out some of the die cut dots and filled in some of them with coloured cardstock to match the Love Balloons, which come with two separate different highlight dies.
I stacked four layers of black matte cardstock and black glitter cardstock to build a Bicycle with dimension. To finish, I stamped a sentiment and two small brush strokes/speed marks from the Silver & Gold stamp set.
Links for new release items will be added as soon as the products go live in stores.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas! Thanks so much for hopping with us today! Remember to check the Paper Smooches Blog on Monday to see if you are one of the lucky winners!!
