Divinity Designs Card Trio

Hello! I'm SO excited to share my first post as a Guest Designer for Divinity Designs. I'll be sharing projects weekly for my three month term and you can find all kinds of inspiration from the Divinity Designs Team on the BLOG

I have three cards to share today, and of course this first one is a Slimline! I used the Slimline Card Base die to cut the card base (NOTE this die requires a larger die cutting machine). The white panel was die cut with the Slimline Rectangles and embossed. Many of the Divinity Designs dies come with this embossing feature!

The Slimline Quatrefoil Die is a new background die from the March release, and I cut it from the Beautiful Blooms Slimline Sized patterned paper and adhered it over a slightly smaller panel of pink card stock. Cutting it again from white, I took some of the white fallaway pieces and added them back into the centre area then the whole background piece was popped up with fun foam.

I like that the You Warm My Heart stamp set comes with a die to cut out the 'to go' cup, and that is the set I chose to finish off my card front.


Inside I added a strip of the patterned paper to a die cut & embossed panel from the Slimline Rectangles. I used the negative piece that I cut the front circle from as a stencil, and lightly brushed ink inside it then added a few more images from the You Warm My Heart stamp set.



My second card is a Flip Fold Card and if you follow me you know how much I love this style of card. I have had the Vintage Flip Fold With Layers die set since it was first released because I knew how much use I would get out of it and I love that it comes with all the layering dies too. I have a walkthrough of this card on YouTube:



Once again I used Kraft card stock for the card base and the Beautiful Blooms patterned paper for my card.


In the photo below you get a better look at the embossed edges. The Raspberries were white embossed onto one of the included labels in the Vintage Flip Fold With Layers die set. Then, I painted them in with diluted Distress Oxide inks, which I go over in the video.


A sentiment from the Raspberries set was stamped onto a Double Stitched Circle and popped up with thin foam tape.



Finally - my third card and it is also a Slimline card and uses one of the die sets that were released in March. I have the A2 sized Z Fold Card with Layers die set and I love it, so I was really excited to see it released in a Slimline size!!! I continued with the Kraft card stock and Beautiful Blooms patterned paper for this card as well.


The stamps I used are all from the Raspberries set and the only other die I used was the Double Stitched Circle. When the layering dies are included, it makes it so much easier to create a polished looking card.


Below is the view from the back and there is lots of room to write a note on the white panel.

All of the layering dies come with the set, but to cut the smaller white angled piece on the back, and the Kraft one on the front centre, you need to cut from the back side which is easy to do.



I'll be back next week with more Divinity Designs Inspiration!
