You stayed tuned - good for you. Here are cards #1 and #2 from my fun session with alpha dies and Dylusions spray inks. Got your sunglasses on? Here they come.
This was my first idea. I told you I loved the color saturation on the negative so that' what I went with first. Thought it worked best with black. But then I punched some holes in the black to let the white card base peek through. Love that effect. And, a la JJ the die cutting queen, I popped some gold CS letters into the negative to emphasize the "hi". Here's a shot of the gold for ya.
Also told you that I had a "wow" moment when I was holding both the white CS and the negative that I had used as a mask in my hand. This is what I saw. That cool shadow effect.
So I die cut the wonky rectangle, emphasized the "hi" by drawing white stitches around it to match the chipboard "U" I had picked out to go with the message. Then after DD said "what's this "U" card for?" we decided I needed to make those stitches black. Still see a bit of the white peeking out from under the black, eh? I ran my little Cutter Bee thingy around the edges for a bit interest. Have to look closely to see it.
And again, I'm playing with these fun groups - Three Cool Chicks, Moxie Fab World and Simon Says Stamp. Check out my last post if you want to see more about what I did to make these.
