Diorama Card with layering dies

I was so excited to discover that I could make a diorama card with layering dies! You can find them on page 163 of the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue. The dies can be used with any stamp set and I love its irregular shapes.

Looking through my stash, it was a toss up as to which stamp set I should use, the Whale Done or Friends are like Seashells. As the Pearlescent Specialty paper is available in the new catalogue, I chose to work with the latter. It seemed to coordinate perfectly with the Sand and Sea Designer Series Paper so well.

Halfway through creating the card, I mislaid one of the seaweed stamps and I wasted half the morning rifling through the dustbin looking for it, not pleasant when you have to rifle through the day’s household waste, not to mention looking in the sink to see if it had been washed away accidentally!

The Seashell 3D embossing folder came into play too, especially when it’s used to emboss with pearlescent paper. It gives the shells an extremely shell like quality!

Here’s a video tutorial on how those new dies work – they’re definitely a keeper!
