The main image in this stamp set is a wave. It has so much meaning to it, just that one image. It can just stand alone without anything else - as a meditation. I got the bundle of this set - the stamp set and dies. The wave dies are truly a stand alone, there are two different dies that are just mesmerizing . Ended up making cards using the wave die cuts as my focal elements for the cards. With the set of cards I did, I stamped the sentiment in the set which I thought was pretty universal .
The DSP that goes along with this set is stunning, rich blues and greens that adds a brilliance to the waves which are used under the dies. Too pretty to waste, even the scraps were used to make strip cards.
I used minimal DSP and embellishments opting for just some gems and die cuts of the little birds. On a few cards I stamped a few too many birds, but I like the way they turned out.
Strip Wave Card
- Use 3 strips of DSP of varying widths on the left side of card front
- Place the die cut wave on the front (best to use liquid glue to adhere)
- Stamp sentiment to upper right of card front
- Stamp or embellish with bird(s)
- Using strip of embossed coordinating card stock place on the bottom of card front
- Place the die cut wave above the embossed strip
- Stamp sentiment to upper right of wave die cut
- Embellish as desired
- Die cut the front of a folded card using the wave die, positioning the die to the bottom
- After separating the the wave die cut from the card stock, set aside.
- Place the desired DSP on the inside of the card front covering the die cut wave area
- Replace the wave die cut in the space using liquid glue
- Embellish as desired
