For today’s blog hop I created a simple card using the newly released Just Leaves Die Set and a masking paper.

Using a masking technique I crated a background of my card. I cut a leaf from Just Leaves Die Set out of masking paper to create a mask. Then I used Altenew inks and small Ink Blending Tools to apply colours to the background.

congrats

I added some black ink splatters for more interest and another die cut coloured with markers from Artist Markers Set E. To finish the card I stamped my sentiment and tiny stars from Sentiments & Quotes Stamp Set.

That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is Tenia Nelson.

For today’s blog hop I used the beautiful Craft-A-Flower: Snowdrops Layering Die Set to decorate a gift wrapping. I think it’s a perfect way to make every gift extra special.

I cut out my snowdrops out of white cardstock and coloured some bits with markers.

Then I combined my flowers with some paper string and dry sprig to create the decoration.

That’s it for me and this is the very last stop on the blog hop for you to complete! I hope you enjoyed all the great projects along the way!
