Hi everyone! I am so proud to be Sneak Peeking this very new stamp set and die as they are very special to me - I illustrated them for Craftin Desert Divas.

So let's get started! To begin with I took the white card stock piece and cut it to fit the size of my card. Then using stamping tool and new clear stamps I did all the stamping part, moving the images along the paper to fit the best.

After I started coloring, and this time it was black and white kinda color pick - I used only grey and black shades to color the images. I always start with light colors and then blend them into darker shades.

To add a bit of structure to the colored piece I decided to make part of it poping out,so I took die and cut the inside part out.

After that I use some foam tape to attach the inside part of the colored piece back, but this time I put it all on the card base. First the outside part of the colored piece, then the poping out inside part.

For the sentiment I used new die Hello Beautiful, I cut the outside part in black card stock and the letters - in white (goes perfect with my black and white design pick!). Not to mess around with glue when putting the letters back on the black piece I attached the glue tape straight to the white card stock before running the piece through the cutting machine.

To put the card together I simply added sentiment to the background piece, did some white gel pen light lines and put few gold dots here and there. And here it's done!
