White & Gold Card

Hello friends and welcome to my blog

Today I am sharing a little trick to stretch your dies. I love finding new ways to use my dies. Sometimes the negative pieces of the die cuts can be used to create new and unique designs

The golden border on this card was made with left over die cuts from cards that I made for Christmas. (The die was the same that I used on the previous card that I posted here but in gold)

 While I was cleaning the gold die cut this particular shape caught my eye and I started fiddling with it... arranging and rearranging them to make few designs and I used this border design for today's card. (I have used these pieces on another card that I will be posting in the coming weeks so stay tuned for that) The sentiment is also a part of another die cut. 

Have you tried using the leftover pieces of die cuts to create some new unusual designs? Tell me in the comments down below. Scroll down for more details

Instructions:

Die cut a piece of Luxe Gold Cardstock and 2 pieces of white cardstock using the die from Ornamental Tags Die. Cut out the sentiment part from all the die cuts and then trim off the top part so that the letters are joined only at the bottom. Stack and adhere them together.

Adhere the negative die cut pieces of Luxe Gold Cardstock left after cutting Teardrop Lattice Gateway Die on a strip of white cardstock to create a slim border as shown. Adhere this border on a slightly wider piece of Luxe Gold Cardstock.

Die cut a piece of white cardstock and a piece of Luxe Gold Cardstock using the die from Adorn It Pocket Accents Die. Adhere the white die cut on gold die cut, offsetting them a little. 

Arrange and adhere all the 3 final pieces on a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" white card base as shown using double sided foam tape wherever necessary. Trim off the excess hanging off the edges using a pair of scissors. Adhere gold rhinestones to the die cuts to add finishing touch.
