Criss Cross Rays

It is early ordering day for StampNation Members for Catherine Pooler Designs' newest release, April Showers Bring collection! This collection will be releasing to the public tomorrow, Wednesday, April 14th at 9am EST.

This little hedgie from the Puddle Play Stamp Set is too cute for words. I stamped in Midnight Ink and then die cut him and the puddle from the coordinating Puddle Plays Dies and used a Blending Brush to apply two bases of color, Icing on the Cake for the hedgehog and Serenade for the umbrella. The hedgie and umbrella were adhered to an Ultra Smooth White Cardstock base with dimensional adhesive over the puddle, and then I stamped a sentiment from Puddle Play. 

The star of the show on this card is the Sunburst Strips Cover Plate Die. I ran the plate through my die cut machine using an embossing plate instead of a cutting plate, and then cut the rays in two sections. I applied an ink blend of Fiesta Blue and Cummerbund inks to the larger panel and Catching Rays and Limencello inks to the other. I then splattered the panels with After Dark IzInk and adhered the rays to the card in a criss cross fashion. 

I can't wait to see all your finished products with this amazing release!
