As mentioned yesterday, this month we are showcasing the products in any order we choose! I think this is super fun as you’ll see a bit of everything from everyone each day – definitely worth hopping to every single DT member’s blog for this!! AND we have an *amazing* Guest Designer this month – check out the Lil’ Inker Designs blog for more info!!

And just to reiterate – it is well worth hopping and commenting as there’s a chance to win prizes! This month there are 3 $15 store credits up for grabs that will be selected at random from one of our blogs!!

So today I’m showing you a super awesome die!! It creates the most amazing and detailed pattern! It’s the Cover Up: Leaf Pattern die!!

It seems it really is a case of ‘great minds think alike’ as my card, created over the weekend, is really similar to another by my fellow DT member Amy!:

Squeal!!! Isn’t that effect just awesome?!

I started with a panel of Stamper’s Select White cardstock and die cut the entire plate. Then, keeping the leaves in their places, I coloured them individually with Distress Markers.

Once this was done I placed adhesive on the backs of the leaves and, using the negative as a guide, positioned the leaves onto my Rustic White card base. Super easy, and therapeutic too!!

Finally I spritzed the entire card quite heavily with Studio Calico’s Mister Huey’s Mist in Calico Shine. This created just the faintest hint of wicking of the colours – just what I was after. 🙂

Sometimes a card doesn’t need a sentiment and leaving this one plain made it look like some fancy high-end stationery!!

So, now you’ve seen this awesome die officially introduced – maybe you ought to head over to the Lil’ Inker Designs site and take a look around! Tell ’em Taheerah sent ya, lol! In the meantime I would love it if you left some love before you went on your way! Thanks so much for stopping by!!
