Hey everyone. I’m participating in the Altenew Texture Adventure Stand-alone Dies Release Blog Hop & Giveaway. You should of arrived here from Norine Borys’ blog. I’m playing with the Altenew Layered Geo Dies. These dies are absolutely gorgeous. Want a striking background to your card? You need these dies
There are two dies that layer onto of each other to create a beautiful background. For my bottom layer I used black card stock. For the colorful top layer, I used Altenew Block Rainbow washi tape over white paper before I ran my die through my machine.
Look how gorgeous this die works with the washi tape. The sentiment is from the Crafty Life stamp set from Altenew.
Using the same approach for my next card, I used the Marsh Land washi tape and the Stacked Diamond die cut. I adhered the large roll of washi tape over an A2 card panel to create this beautiful background. Placing the Stacked Diamond die cut on top of these piece, I embossed the die into the paper. I finished the card off with a simple sentiment and a few gems.
