Stitched Arch Die Focused Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a card inspired by a beloved book using the Stitched Arch Dies. Do you know The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me by Roald Dahl? It was one of the first books I read to my daughter and it is still one of our favorites. This card was inspired by it:

I first created a square card base sized 6,5x6,5 and inked the front with blue Distress Oxide ink, using a cloud stencil. Now I trimmed the kraft cardstock panel the same size and die-cut the windows from it. I stamped the images from Savanna Safari, Tropical Scenes, Love Monkey and Fabulous Flamingos onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics, die-cut everything with the matching dies, cut the giraffe into halves and adhered the elements to the card.

Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock and adhered it to the card with foam tape.

Wishing you all a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi everyone, Anja here. I'm a big fan of dies with stitching details and the Stitched Arch
Dies are really versatile. By hazard, I discovered that you can build a heart with them.

I started off with a turquoise A2 card base. From a slightly smaller white cardstock panel, I die cut the second largest arch twice using the Partial Die Cutting Technique. To get the heart shape, I rotated the die 90 degrees before running it through my die cutting machine again. For the actual heart, I die cut the arch from 3 shades of turquoise cardstock. I did some additional die cutting and inlaid the pieces into the negative white space.

Next, I stamped the floral and leaf images from the Pink Peonies set onto the same cardstock colors and some vellum using VersaMark Ink. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out and arranged the images into a cluster right over the heart. I adhered them with liquid glue and popped up the largest peony in the center with foam tape.

I stamped the birthday sentiment from the Floating By set in VersaMark Ink onto a small cardstock strip and white heat embossed it. I adhered it with foam tape as well and added matching enamel dots and clear sequins to finish off my card.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Wishing you a beautiful day!
