Hi friends!
It's release time at Hero Arts and this new release will definitely cheer you up if you are suffering of a long and cold winter like we are here in Finland! Winter is surely beautiful... But the nature waking up in the spring with beautiful lilacs is even more beautiful if you ask me! Let's have a look what kind of cards I've created with the dies and stamps of the release.
Card 1
Die Cut There's No One Lilac You
This card is created with the Layered Lilac Die Set and sentiment from No One Lilac You Samp Set. You could think putting this die cut lilac together takes for ages but actually not at all! There's "officially" 2 layers and the way the die is designed makes it very simple to know where to glue your layering pieces. I ended up adding a 3rd layer by randomly glueing small flowers here and there and I love the way this turned out! I used gold gel pen and shimmery glitter pen for the flower centers and embellished the card with white paint splatters.
With this card I'd like to join:

Card 2
Hello Friend
The stamps from There's No One Lilac You stamp set are perfect for clean and simple card making. I used two of the separate lilac stems and colored them with alcohol markers and colored pencils. The sentiment I heat embossed with white. I cut a small label tag to have something behind the flowers (Tag Frames Infinity Dies) and used a cover plate die from Cozy Critters, Die of The Month September 2025 for giving the tag some texture.

Card 3
Stamped There's No One Lilac You
The focal point of this card is the main image from the No One Lilac You Samp Set. I've colored it with alcohol markers and colored pencils. I wanted to have a very simple background for this card so all I did was mask off a strip from the bottom of the card and inked a little bit of blue above it. I added gold paint splatters for embellishment. The sentiment is simply stamped, no heat embossing this time!

Three beautiful cards. Your last card is so pretty with your background giving just the right balance for the flowers. Thanks for sharing it with us at We Love Stamping.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Nonni! The lilac die set is awesome and I checked out your link. It really does give the appearance of layers and layers of tiny flowers. Great base to build the flowers and you used it perfectly. I love lilacs! Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's February Challenge.
