Hey, hi, hello there! I just wanted to stop by quickly today to share a fun card as well as a peek at some new slimline dies being released by Rubbernecker today. I have quite a few Paper Smooches stamp sets in my collection and was heartbroken to read that the shop would be closing soon (but wish Kim all the best!). I bought the Happy Hellos stamp set a few months ago and I’ve been dying to put it to use, so thought it would make the perfect card to let my young nephew know I’m thinking about him.
I stamped three of the images onto some white cardstock with Obsidian Amalgam Ink (masking off the bird on the one image to leave just the “hey”) and colored them in with Copic markers. I wanted to keep the background bright and fun, so started by blending Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks over a piece of white cardstock with blending brushes and splattered water over the finished panel for lots of texture. Then I cut some lime cardstock using the new Slimline OPC Circle Dash Die and popped it up on top with foam adhesive.
Here’s a look at some of the other new OPC Slimline Dies just released by Rubbernecker today…these dies cut both outer and inner edges all at once so you can make easy backgrounds for slimline cards super quick. From left to right are: Slimline OPC Wavy Die, Slimline OPC Squares Die, Slimline OPC Circle Dash Die, Slimline OPC Hearts Die, and Slimline OPC Diagonal Die.
The other new slimline styles being released make just the inside cuts, so you can mix and match them with the previously released slimline frame dies for infinite possibilities. Pictured above are (from left to right):
- Slimline Inside Circles Die with the Slimline Scallop with Holes Die
- Slimline Inside Rounded Squares Die with the Slimline Nested Stitch Dies
- Slimline Inside Wonky Squares Die with the Slimline Solid Deckle Die
- Slimline Inside Ovals with Holes Die with the Slimline Solid Bubble Scallop Die
- Slimline Inside Diagonal Die with the Slimline Solid Postage Die
Not pictured (because I used it for another card already 🙂 ) is the Slimline Inside Scallop with Teardrop Die. I love how I can create tons of different background patterns just by choosing a different slimline frame and inside cut die!
I hope you enjoyed this cute slimline card project and a peek at the newest slimline dies from Rubbernecker. Stay tuned for more inspiration using these products over the coming weeks and thanks so much for stopping by!
