Springtime Impressions Stacked Die Cards

I am into stacking dies! Love how the added thickness of the die gives extra depth. I love this thinlit from the Springtimes Impressions Thinlits, especially stacking it!                                            The background to the stacked die was brayered using So Saffron and Coral Calypso. The inks were blended in the middle of the diagonal application. It was also layered onto a So Saffron layer which had been to Silver Foiled card base.                                   'Happy Birthday' from Happy Gorgeous Stamp Set
 was silver embossed onto an oval shape cut using Stitched Shapes Framelits.  To finish, a piece of Calypso Coral Satin Ribbon and Silver thread was adhered below the oval sentiment.

Two Techniques using Well Written Framelits Dies

My card class asked for techniques and this card uses three. The first technique used ink smooching to make the background, the other two techniques involved using the framelits from the new Well Written Framelits Dies. The sentiments for each card were inset while the remaining dies were stacked.

Lovely Lattice

I have two cards to share today, both were coloured using watercolour pencils on Shimmery White cardstock. I fussy cut the bottom half of the first card and the whole of the second.
The card base on the first card uses Grapefruit Grove cardstock and finished with a cut down piece from the In Colour 6x6" DSP stack, a band and bow using Grosgrain ribbon and some sequins from the Iridescent Sequin Assortment. I also coloured the large rose from another stamped image, coloured it to match, fussy cut it out and adhered with dimensionals for some extra depth.
The second card was raised with dimensionals and adhered to a Sea Foam card base which had a layer of dsp from the Subtles 6x6" pack.  I also cut multiple of 'thanks' from the Well Written Framelits Dies. These were stacked and glued for added dimension.  Also, some rhinestones were added to the roses centres for a little bling!
