WPlus9 September 2014 Release {Day 4}

Thursday, September 4, 2014

 
Hello again!
Have you been enjoying this release so far?
Dawn really knows the way into my stamping heart.  I just love it all.  Today my card features a new die called Lattice Frame Die.  It creates a beautiful lattice design and it cuts like a dream.  I've saved the pieces that pop out, too, because they make the perfect square confetti for a shaker or to come tumbling out of an envelope. The Lattice Frame Die makes a great stencil, too! 
  
WPlus9 Supplies
Stamps: Little Bits {available 9/5/14}, Dream Believer {available 9/5/14} //Dies: WPlus9 Exclusive Lattice Frame Die {available 9/5/14} // Dye Ink: Ocean Drive, Mojito  // Cardstock: White, Dove Grey
 
For this project I die cut it from white cardstock and stamped the sentiment and feather images from Dream Believer.  Another  thing I love about this stamp set are the many feather images.  I have shared before how my husband collects feathers for me on walks.  He knows how much I love them and he always keeps his eye out for the perfect feather.  I have quite the collection.  So this set makes me think of him and how much he loves me!

 
  I popped the Lattice Frame Die up on some Dove Grey cardstock that I stamped with Little Bits.  The dots just peek through the lattice.  A simple design that's the perfect {masculine} encouragement card.  They need one, too, from time to time.
 
For my next card, I created a stencil using the Lattice Frame Die.  I used the stencil to apply modeling paste.  Before the modeling paste dried, I sprinkled it with glitter to add shine to this tone on tone design.  I stamped the 'sequins' from the Little Bits stamp set in Old Gold ink.  I die cut a few feathers from the Dreamcatcher Die Set and coated them in glitter too.  I created a sentiment with a combination of a stamp from Hand Lettered Hello and a die cut from Hand Lettered Thanks.
