Creative Expressions DT Card, plus 3 with TIPS

Welcome to Saturday!  It's my DT day to post for Creative Expressions and I have made another Card using the Hearts of Hearts Die.  Also showing 3 additional cards from this past week that I've created using CE's gorgeous Craft Dies by Sue Wilson.
**************************************************************************

My Heart is With You Card


CARD RECIPE
 These white flowers were created with the "Foldover Flower Dies" and surrounded by multiple "Finishing Touches" sprays. 
Stamps: Anna Griffin Sentiment
Paper: Glittered Pink DP, Black CS, Heavy White CS
Paper Size: 6x7
Ink: none
Accessories: CE  Sue Wilson Floral Brocade Pinpoint Embossing FolderCE Craft Dies by SW; Heart of Hearts, Diagonal Collection Love Hearts Dies. Also Fine Granulated Diamond Dust.

(Tip  1 - for creating a "white baby's breath" look; Drop dots of PVA Glue and sprinkle with a coarse glitter. I've used a Fine Granulated Diamond Dust here (for the texture),. Drop glue over those dots three additional times - drying and sprinkling with glitter each time. Fun to do and dries super fast!)
(Tip 2 - use parts of your die cuts in different ways or as as accents on your designs - like Ive done here for the sentiment tag)

I'm so excited about Sue's Craft dies that I've got 3 more makes to show;

Card 1 - Best Wishes Wedding
CARD RECIPE
 I've layered the GOLDEN word multiple times (for dimension). Sits on a dry embossed striped panel. The Gemini border was die-cut on both front and back of card base. Extra layers were adhered and staggered for a lacey look on front. A bow and golden pearl button finish the look.
Stamps: None
Paper:  Designer Paper; Be Bold, Be Bright Foiled Sheets, Heavy White CS
Paper Size: 6x7
Ink: none
Accessories: CE Craft Dies by SW; Expressions "Best Wishes" Die and The Mini Gemini Corvus Die, Cuttlebug Embossing Folder,  Fine Granulated Diamond Dust,Pearl and Golden Button, White Satin Ribbons.
(Tip1 - multi-layer your edge borders and stack staggered for a lacey look. 
(Tip 2 - always cut the back card base too for a more complete look)
 
******************************************************************

 Card 2 - Thank You!
CARD RECIPE
Super excited about the buckle dies! I've cut the buckle and scalloped edges to create my separate paneled background and a tiny section to accent my tag here. Just having fun with it and imagine these buckle dies working great layered and placed in center of makes like I've done here.  This row/belt-like across the center almost looks leather-ish, heh?  ;)
Stamps: Creative Expressions - Petite Lavish Sentiments
Paper:  Heavy White Cardstock and Basic Grey DP
Paper Size: 6x7
Ink: Brilliance Browns, Marvy Markers (inked all edges of Buckle across center)
Accessories: Creative Expressions Craft Dies by Sue Wilson; Finishing Touches Collection Scalloped Lattice Buckle Bar Die,  Sizzix Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, Dazzler

 (Tip 1 - Use and Cut portions of the same die-cuts, like I've done here and placed on my sentiment tag here for a matching accent)
(TIP 2 - Color your clear dazzler blings  like Ive done here with matching Marvy Markers to match the my Designer Paper Colors)
(Tip 3 - THESE BUCKLES folded and buckled would work great as pretty napkin holders, or for using as handles on Easter baskets, or for creating a scene's fence, or lining up the buckle ends in straight lines for new octagon geometrical looks, or the ends could work as award medallions, or using as fun backgrounds like I did here, etc... Oh boy,  to create the possibilities! Hope you'll give these a try!
