Diamonds and Poppies - Concord and 9th November Release

Good morning! I'm delighted this month to be joining Concord and 9th as a guest designer for their newest release! You can find all of their newest goodies HERE at Simon Says Stamp. I've had so much fun playing with all the new sets, and will be sharing a new project each day for 6 days as they feature each suite of products from the new release. Today's card features a fun and versatile background die that I ended up using on several cards! And who doesn't love red poppies?


I started off by die cutting the new Diamond Cut Inlay die from white cardstock, and then some of the solid squares from Harbor cardstock. I backed the lattice with Powder cardstock, then ink blended a bit of Harbor ink on each of the die cut squares along one side before popping up with foam in a pattern on the left hand side. I die cut several of the flowers and stems from Sketched Stems dies using Poppy, Pimento, and Avocado cardstock, then assembled those together, adding some white gel pen accents on the flowers. I adhered those, tucking them into the lattice in the bottom and trimming the excess off, then popping the flowers up with foam adhesive squares. I wrapped some white twine around and tied in a loopy bow, then added a good sprinkle of Clear Dazzling gems for sparkle. The sentiment is from the new Inside & Out set. I stamped and die cut the portion for the front, adhering it with foam adhesive, then stamped the inside on a frame cut with the Sweetly Stitched die, and matted with more of the Powder cardstock. I think that sentiment is just the sweetest, don't you? Here's a closer look:
