For this one I've used a die that my husband bought me - I think it was from Marianne Creatables - which I always seem to use as a silhouette, cutting it from black card, but this time I wanted to try something different.
I smooshed turquoise, magenta and yellow distress inks onto a large acrylic block (I find it easier to see where the ink is that way than doing it on a craft mat) and spritzed with water then pressed white card onto it and used the resulting card for the die cutting. I couldn't stay away from the black though - this time I used it as a background. I think it sets off the colours really well.
The sentiment is stamped using a stamp from the new Dovecraft "Kiss and Make Up" collection. It's absolutely HUGE, isn't it? Well, Paris is, after all, the city of love!

Stunning card. That die is divine but the way you cut it from the inky paper and then affixed it to the black is fab.
Just lovely!
