Watch this video https://youtu.be/UkCE6L-gKnM to create beautiful 3D dimension with the Peacock Paisley stamps and die.
Instructions: Finished card measures 5 x 7". Cut mint cardstock to 7 x 10" and score at 5" to create base. Cut a piece of white cardstock to 4 3/4 x 6 3/4" and emboss this with an embossing folder. Use a corner rounder punch on all 4 corners. Cut cardfront from the Peacock Paisley collection and mat it onto a slightly larger piece of mint cardstock. Be sure to use the corner round on the 4 corners of the mint cardstock, too! Stamp the Peacock image from the Peacock Swirls stamp set onto mixed media paper using Espresso Truffle ink pad. Color the peacock image with the markers (colors listed) using a Clear Wink of Stella pen to blend the colors. Watch this coloring technique here. (Note: You can also use a paint brush or water brush to achieve the same effect.) Use the matching die to die cut the Peacock out and adhere to the cardfront panel using 3d foam squares. Add some gold rhinestones in the middle of the daisies. Cut the sentiment from the paper collection and use a bone folder to give it some dimension. Wrap the ribbon around the cardfront panel and tie into a bow. Use some 3d foam squares to adhere the cardfront to the cardbase to complete the project.
