It’s Your Day Die Cut Card

Hello and welcome back to the Heffy Doodle Blog! We are SO glad you stopped by to see what crafty inspiration we have today! Today’s theme is “Stretch Your Supplies” with design team member – Tatiana!

Today I decided to stretch some dies from my crafty stash by mixing and matching a couple of different styles and collections. To start, I prepared a full card front background with a fun faux stitched woodgrain texture. Then I die cut a jumbo sentiment to use as a focal central point on my card with a shadow layer made by gluing together an additional dark red layer slightly offset. Finally I embellished the card front with lots of floral elements die cut from Heffy Doodle coloured cardstock and gorgeous recently released sequins.

Key Ingredients:

• STAMPS AND DIES:
  • It’s Your Day Jumbo Sentiment Dies
  • Leafy Laurel Circle Dies
  • Tree-mendous Peekaboo Tree Dies
  • Woodgrain Texture Background Die
  • Imperial Stitched Rectangles Dies
• OTHER CRAFT SUPPLIES:
  • Pixie Hollow Embellishment Mix
  • Pink Fizz Sparkle Embellishment Mix
  • Heffy Doodle Coloured Cardstock – Mix 1
  • Heffy Doodle Coloured Cardstock – Mix 2
  • Heffy Doodle 8.5″ x 11″ White Cardstock
  • Heffy Doodle Glubert – Craft Glue
  • Heffy Doodle Mini Die Cutting Machine

Step By Step Instructions:

• Trim and score an extended A2 size card base (5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″) from Heffy Doodle 8.5″ x 11″ White Cardstock.
• Die cut a 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ red card front from the Heffy Doodle Cherry On Top Coloured Cardstock, using the biggest frame from Imperial Stitched Rectangles Dies.
• Ran the red piece once again inside the die cutting machine with Woodgrain Texture Background Die to add a fun faux stitched texture.
• Die cut twice from Neenah Solar White paper It’s Your Day Jumbo Sentiment Die and stack both layers together with Glubert – Craft Glue.
• Die cut another It’s Your Day Jumbo Sentiment Die from Merlot Coloured Cardstock and glue it to the back side of the jumbo white sentiment slightly offset to create a shadow.
• Pop the sentiment on a foam tape in the center of the card front.
• Die cut a bunch of flowers, leaves and branches from Heffy Doodle Coloured Cardstock – Mix 1 and Mix 2, using Leafy Laurel Circle Dies and Tree-mendous Peekaboo Tree Dies. If you have in your stash, use the Heffy Doodle Mini Die Cutting Machine for all small elements to save time since it’s perfect to work with tiny dies.
• Arrange and glue in place all the floral die cuts around the jumbo sentiment with Glubert – Craft Glue.
• Finish with some sequins from Pixie Hollow Embellishment and Pink Fizz Sparkle Embellishment Mixes.

That’s all for today! Hope you sweet die cut card! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous day!
