Inspiring Imperfections

Our Kintsugi Inspirations Suite (165172) is something a little bit different with it’s lovely images and all occasions sentiments.

The Suite not only includes a lovely bundle of stamps and dies, it has some gorgeous gold foiling in the Kintsugi Inspirations Designer Series Paper (165159) and lots of texture found in the Joined together 3D Embossing Folder (165170) and Flower Accents (165171).

Today’s card use these products to create a lovely card with pops of gold foiling.

The small vase was heat embossed using the Metallic Wow! Embossing Powders (165678) to repeat the gold theme. The Fancy Borders Dies (Online Exclusive 165380) create the shelf it sits on. And the thin rectangle outline was cleverly created with a gold foil panel that was cut slightly larger than the die used, the inside then being removed with the Textured Notes Dies (Online Exclusive 165555) leaving this thin outline. This piece would normally be waste, but also creates a lovely open rectangle.

So many options with this stamp set and dies. I see branches rather than imperfections/cracks that can be used to create lovely flowering trees branches. And check out the Designer Series Paper, You can cut beautiful vases rather than stamping if you prefer!

Today’s card is rich and classic and uses products found in the Kintsugi Inspirations Suite (165172) that is filled with wonderful textures and a touch of gold.

The card uses a lot of texture to create this classic look of blue and gold.

The Joined together 3D Embossing Folder (165170) has used a simple technique of applying ink on the inside of the fold before placing the card stock inside to add color to the impression. The Textured Notes Dies (Online Exclusive 165555) has been used to cut the Gold Foil Sheets (132622) to add a bit of texture to the gold and a bit more gold foil was used to add the imperfection to the vase.

The lovely Flower Accents (165171) add a bit more texture to the flowers. I hope you can see their texture that really makes them shine.
