Just Us Girls 297

Hello!
This is my second week of Guesting with the team at
This week's challenge is a Trend Week


Yep, stacked die cuts ... Easy peasy huh?


I love word dies and they look even better when they are die cut several times and "stacked" ... That's what I did here...


Then covered it in glossy accents ... I used a scrap of paper left over from a previous project both to stencil on and cut out the sentiment -  The butterfly stencil is one of those old metal stencil (by Anna Griffin) and it gives a really crisp image


For the banner I used a piece of Washi Tape and the 'LOVE' stamp is from another old set by Personal Impressions
I'm pushing myself with a green and white colour palette again but I've added a touch of black so I'm much more in my comfort zone

The talented team at Just Us Girls have lots more inspiration for you up on the Blog - Hop over and take a look ...

Thanks so much for your visit

Enjoy your day

Really gorgeous Ros! The spring green and sharp black make such an amazing colour combo, your card jumps off my monitor!! Love the glitter and I have a new found appreciation for sequins now, tee hee. hugs :)

I think you pushed yourself to excellence there! The stacked sentiment looks just wonderful (as does the whole card).

Diane said...

Very pretty, I don't own a lot of word dies, and I do need more, but I never remember to "stack" them, and I think they look so beautiful that way!
Another beautiful card!!! Hope your weather is nice, it has rained for days here and we have at least another week of it!

Love your card, Ros! I like how there is a subtle touch of green in your stacked sentiment, to go along with the green in your card.

Love your mix here Ros. The green works really well and I agree, those stacked word dies look amazing. I still need to try that loose thread trick. Hugs!
