Hello and welcome! I'm up on the Memory Box blog today with these newly released "Exquisite Leaf Frame" and "Miss You Posh Script" dies.
Here's a closer look at my card for today:
For the background you can see that I used a 3D embossing folder on the watercolor card stock. I love using thick watercolor card stock with 3D embossing folders because you get such a deep and lovely impression. The word die also has a shadow die with it, but I decided not to use it as I wanted a thin black sentiment in the center and didn't want to draw any attention away from the lovely frame die.
The frame die was cut twice, once from alcohol inked Yupo paper and a second time from watercolor card stock that was smooshed with the same colors of ink and popped on top with very thin foam tape.
You can see the bottom layer of the leaf frame has more shine to it as it is the Yupo paper with alcohol inks. The top layer is more matte looking and it was turned around so that the leaf layers did not match up. I wanted a layered leaf look, so I decided to not line them up but instead reverse the top layer. I think it gives a really nice look to the card and especially like the contrast of shiny versus matte for the leaves.
Lastly I added some gems from Memory Box around the card front.
Here's one last look:

Reversing the frame was a great idea and worked beautifully for this design. Love the softness of the colours.
