The paper I used here is Tropical Punch by Kaisercraft, and the Die is also by kaisercraft. I die cut the feather and ran it through the cuttlebug swiss dots folder. I used the off cut from the feather die to sponge through to create the inked images on the patterned paper.( tea Dye distress ink).A flower, punched leaf,and bir ribbon bow and this one was complete!

Tag: kaisercraft feather die
A die with a twist..
A little while ago I filmed a youtube clip for Paper Flourish showcasing some kaisercraft dies.The two dies I used were the flourish die and the feather die. This is one of the cards I created using these dies and some kaisercraft tropical punch paper. I die cut the feather, and then used the piece I would normally throw away – inked the edges with Tea dye distress ink, and backed it with some tropical punch paper. I love this effect and it has made me look at all my off cuts in a different way! I just added a doily, bling,flower and bakers twine to finish a different style of card for me.Oh, and I love kaisercraft dies. of all the dies I have used these ones cut the easiest – just fall away. no poking required.Til tomorrow….
New Kaisercraft Feather die
A little break from all things Christmas today. I recently had the pleasure of roadtesting some new Kaisercraft dies for my local craft shop – Paper flourish, and one of the dies is featured here on todays card. I was most impressed with the quality of the dies, and particularly liked the way they fell off the die without very much persuasion at all!Here I have used it as it was intended – just die cut a couple of feathers and inked around the edges. On other cards I used the negative cut to sponge through onto my paper( which worked brilliantly) and ran other feathers through the die cutting machine in an embossing folder which also worked a treat, so lots of use from this die!The bird stamp on this card is by oxford impressions,and the flower is Prima. sentiment stamp,ribbon and linen thread are all from stampin up. til tomorrow….
