A new mini-release from Catherine Pooler is here and it such a lovely release! I’ve been able to play with the Blessed bundle releasing in the Spring Garden release, and it has a lovely cover plate di called Peony In Bloom. This is a beautiful bloom and cover plate die and you can use the bloom as is but I altered it for this card. I’ve got another card coming very soon with the cover plate die used as is, so make sure you keep an eye on the blog and my Social media for when that goes live! For now, let me show you how to alter your cover plate die with 1 easy trick!

alter your cover plate die with 1 easy trick
Start off by die-cutting the Peony In Bloom Cover Plate die from white cardstock. Next, use a pair of scissors to snip off the step, leaves and the border. And it is simple as that!

For the background, ink blend Juniper Mist ink onto a Nautical Hero Hues card panel, fading out it the middle for a little depth and dimensions. Next, using liquid adhesive, adhere the die-cut down onto the front.

alter your cover plate die with 1 easy trick: assembling the card
For the sentiment, die-cut the Blessed Word die from cardstock 3 times and layer up. The smoosh WOW! embossing ink onto the die-cut and cover with WOW! Metallic Gold Rich embossing powder.

Heat set the powder and repeat this 3 times to layer up the embossing powder and create a smooth appearance. Next, add this to the card panel and add a smaller heat embossed sentiment from the Abundantly Blessed sentiment stamp set.

Lastly, embellish with a few matt gold sequins scattering them around the card.
