Stampin' Up! Rose Garden Thinlits Die - Sponging

This post features cards that use the Rose Garden Thinlits Die by Stampin' Up! as a mask in sponging.  I applied in sponging, circular motion colours of Real Red, Old Olive and Marina Mist over the die cut to create this look...

Yes I lifted the die and softly went over the image to dull the bright white of the Whisper White cardstock.  I moved to Daffodil Delight to colour the rose, but kept the Old Olive and Marina Mist...

Bow Builder Punch x Stampin' Up!

Bows are a great addition to a female card and so many things can be made out of the bow builder.  For this post I will concentrate on a couple of cards I made - with a bow and a flower, yes both made with the bow builder punch. Rich Razzleberry, Pacific Point and Melon Mambo are the colours used on these bows - pure and simple, I just love the white background embossed with the Arrows 132187 Textured Impressions Embossing Folders.
