Good morning! Today I've got a bright and shiny card to share - using a die that I actually have had for a while, and never got a chance to use from Simon Says Stamp - paired with some other supplies to finish the card off.
I started by cutting out several of the Citrus Slices die from Green Apple cardstock, and the solid layer from Shimmer Vellum, then layering them and gluing together. For the background, I used some watercolor paper, and used ink cubes in Celery and Limelicious to swipe down from the top of the panel, then misted with water, and let the colors run a bit. I smooshed some Pearfection on a clear block, picked it up with a wet brush, and added some additional splatters for texture. Once it was dry, I layered all the lime slices over top, adhering with liquid glue. I let some hang off the edges of the panel, and trimmed off the excess, reusing the trimmed off pieces as I was able. Sentiment is You Brighten My Day wafer die, cut from white for the shadow layer, then the main layer once each from Green Apple and black cardstock. I adhered those two layers together slightly offset for a shadow effect to make the words pop a bit extra. I added a tiny secondary sentiment over the top from Reverse Sunshine and Rainbows sentiment strips. Then it was time to add some shine! I covered the centers of the lime slices with Blizzard Glitter Drops, and the outside edges of each one - and the main sentiment - with Crystal Glaze. Gave that lots of time to dry thoroughly, then added a twine bow at the top with Black and White Baker's Twine. Here is a closer look at the finished card:
