My card is layered, but in a CAS design really.
Items used: Tim Holtz Mixed Media #2 Die set Elizabeth Craft Design "With Sympathy" die Memory Box Pippi butterfly Memory Box - Elegant Scrollwork Tim Holtz Chipped Sapphire Ink Pad Tim Holtz Faded Jeans Distress Ink Pad Shimmer Mist White Hammer cardstock... that's the WHAT? Now for the HOW! |
Taking DI Faded Jean + Chipped Sapphire, smoothed colour randomly from ink pad in two open corners. |
TIP for Word Die layering - if you leave the base die cut attached to
bottom outline, then add next two pieces using outline as guide. Find
this stops them stretching out of shape + these
Elizabeth Craft Design dies tend not to do that.
Triple layer MB Scroll die too.
Add layered die cuts on card base, using Ranger Multi Matte Medium.
Love the monotone of this card, plus very happy with my only set of TH dies, think they're very versatile.
You can see shimmery sheen in image close up below .. hope you like this too!

Aussie shot was taken last month when we went for a long drive, to Red Rock, now wonder it is called that? sadly not great deal of the namesake Red Rock left, due to beach erosion. |

Pop by Bec's store, too, for her great bargain prices.
Special prayers at this time for all who suffered in London Sat evening and others from previous attacks across this troubled, sin torn world - truly we need to look to the Lord.
Hence why I chose the verse below..
May God bless your day wherever you may be .. and please say hi, so I know you've been by!

For the LORD Jesus, the Prince of Peace said: "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
John 14:27

Stunning card, Shaz. Love the design and the colours are beautiful. x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Love that corner die you used and the pretty colors!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful dies only card. I'm going to try the several layer technique and keeping the top layer within the die next time I use a sentiment die. I have some I haven't used much because I feel they stretch out of shape before they're glued down...
ReplyDeletebeautiful card :) that tim holtz die is superb! love it

What a lovely use of that beautiful corner die! The texture and color underneath is really beautiful, blue is my favorite color.
ReplyDeleteThe red rock beach is really quite a stunning juxtaposition between the rusty colored rock and the light sand. Pretty!
OMGosh, your card is so beautiful Sharon!!! I love the dies you used, they are so cool looking. I love your distress background for the dies too, so gorgeous. The flourish and butterfly are pretty amazing too. And just a beautiful color combo of blue and white. Yep, loving this card!! Love the Oz shot too. Shame about the beach erosion. Those red rocks are just beautiful! Are you in fall now Sharon? I am taking it that no one is swimming now are they? Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning Shaz, beautifully designed and I love your colours, Kate x
ReplyDeleteYour card is awesome. You always create such beautiful cards. Love it!
ReplyDeleteHugs!
I'm here again... :D I realized just now that you entered in the Butterfly Challenge#79, thanks so much and good luck!! :D
ReplyDeleteHi Shaz, a gorgeous card love the paper you made, thanks for showing us the steps too, love that little butterfly die, seems a perfect card size. Thank you for joining in with the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends challenge, good luck in the draw... have a wonderful week... Megan
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful and elegant. The layering is an inspiration. Thank you for the tip on layering the word dies. Such a simple so.oution when you know how. I have seen several mentions of the Tim holts die cuts . They all look good so I must investigate further. More pennies being spent methinks. Thank you for fluttering into the butterfly garden for this challenge. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteA very eye-catching card, I think it's the blue and white. The die cuts look very special with the blue behind. x
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful sympathy card...love the delicate lace on the edges!
ReplyDeleteStunning card and technique Shaz..Loz
ReplyDeleteThis is one heck of a gorgeous card! I'd suggest you could send it to me but I haven't lost anyone recently. Hmm... I do have a relative or two I could off though. I suppose you'd be less than sympathetic over that though. Ah well, I'll just admire this card from afar, as I will Red Rock beach. A little of my way.
ReplyDeleteStunning, elegant and beautiful, just right for a sympathy card.You really inspire dear Shaz! Bravo! xx
ReplyDeleteOnce again you share a beautiful card and a beautiful beach. Both are so calming. Aaaaahhhhhhhhh. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHello Shaz,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful Sympathy card. I like how you used the distress inks and the die cuts. Lovely photo of Red Rock; too bad about the erosion issue. Very sad. Another sadness is the senseless violence all over the world. I like the verse you shared.
Hugs,
Kay
I love this. I am going to try it. I don't have a die similar to that but I am thinking on how I can do it. I love you card. Hugs, Cathy K.
