Let me show you the cards I created using the newest Dies...
This die is simply gorgeous, you an use it as is and pair it with inking or patterned paper. I decided to water color this one :) The die used is Shapeabilities Love Grows Etched Dies 
I die cut this from watercolor card stock and water colored this using Gansai Tambi water colors . I the die cut a black fun foam for adding dimension and layered it on patterned paper [Amy Tangerine Plus one] I also added a few floral sequins to accent. Here is a closeup...

Next I made a set of cards, I used Die D-Lites Sun Face Etched Dies. I wanted to make a red hot sun so I decided to use alcohol inks [Adirondack Sunshine Yellow and Red pepper] and I inked the whole panel. Once dry, I die cut the sun and decided to pair it with blue patterned paper [Spellbinders Sunshiny Day] . I wanted to use the negative die cut too to I made two cards from one panel.
In  the negative space, I made a blue sun bursts by cutting patterned paper into triangular shapes. Also I added a white circle behind the sun face to add a touch of softness :)For sentiments I used stickers from the Spellbinders October Card Kit.

Lastly, I went with traditional inked background for this fabulous die Shapeabilities Sweet Letters Etched Dies I die cut this using black card stock and black fun foam for dimension.

I used a combination of Distress inks to ink the back panel. sprinkled some water and adhered the die cut on top. For sentiment I used sticker alphabets I had in stock. To accent it further I used Wink of Stella Glitter pen to glamorize the die cut :)

I hope you enjoyed my creations. Don't forget to hop along :) your next stop in the hop is the talented Tina Smith's Blog
