On to my projects!! Isn’t the shape of this die-cut just gorgeous? The Marquis Diamond Pendant had me at hello…lol!

I began by die-cutting the components of the Shapeabilities Marquis Diamond Pendant Etched Dies from purple and white shimmer cardstocks. I heat embossed the sentiment onto the solid purple die-cut with pearl embossing powder and then layered them together. For the background, I cut the rectangle from purple cardstock using the largest, rectangular die from the Shapeabilities Cannetille Rectangle Etched Dies. I adhered it to my cardbase and trimmed each corner flush with the front panel. The marquis die-cut was popped up with fun foam that was cut using the same die.

I cut several of each size flower from the same purple and shimmer cardstocks using the Shapeabilities Cinch and Go V Etched Dies and layered them together. I added some adhesive pearls and pearl brads to the centers of the flowers.

My second card combines the Shapeabilities Cannetille Rectangle Etched Dies and the Shapeabilities Cinch and Go V Etched Dies.

This time I used light pink and white cardstock and popped up the center portion with several stacked die-cuts. The sentiment was stamped in black ink.

I also trimmed each corner of the cardbase again, once the die-cut panel was adhered. I think the different shape is so fun!

These dies really do all of the work for you!! It is so easy to create an elegant card by simply layering the die-cuts together!!
