Three In the Nest Creations: World Card Making Day

Happy World Cardmaking Day, everyone! I hope you all have some time to head to your crafty spaces and make some amazing creations. Lil' Inker Designs is having a great sale today in honor of all the cardmakers out there and I hope you'll check it out. You'll enjoy 10% off your order of anything in the Cover Up Dies or Quilted Stitched Dies categories including this brand new die we are releasing today called Diagonal Plaid! It's an awesome sale and an awesome new product all in celebration of an awesome day...AWESOME! ;) Do you want to see what this new die can do? Here's what I created:

I used some wood grain paper to create this tone on tone background using the new Diagonal Plaid. I just love having this die along with Perfectly Plaid. So many fun ways to use them on their own or combined. Just make two cuts and flip one and you get a totally different look! I stuck with just one cut since I was afraid any more would look too busy with the wood grain. I added a strip of vellum along the middle following one of the lines of the Diagonal Plaid die. To this, I added a sentiment from Festive Florals Stamps and a strip of metallic green paper. Then, I got to work arranging the Festive Florals Stamps that I water colored and cut with Festive Florals Dies along the bottom corner of my card. I added some sequins and enamel dots to finish the card and I'm super happy to add it to my Christmas card stash. Here's a closer look:

I hope you guys are all having a great World Card Making Day and I can't wait to get out and see what you all are creating! Have a great day and make sure to check out the awesome sale over at Lil' Inker Designs.
