Pretty Patriotic Picado Cards with Dana

Hello Friends! It’s Dana here today and I am back with two cards that use The Pretty Picado product suite. I thought it would be fun to use these products to create a couple of Americana themed cards for summer and the 4th of July.

I started my first card by creating my card panel with the Pretty Picado embossing folder. I used a sponge to add white pigment ink to the embossed details and attached the panel to an A2 card base. Next, I used the Capsule Star Studded Borders and Capsule Basic dies to die cut the blue and white capsule shapes. I then used the Pretty Picado dies to die cut the intricate details on the white capsule. I love the gorgeous detail these dies create.

For my sentiment, I used the Pretty Picado Sentiments stamp and matching die. I attached the sentiment to the opening of my die cut panel with foam adhesive. Lastly, I used the Pretty Picado Blooms dies to die cut my florals. I attached the florals to my panel with foam adhesive to finish my card.

I started my next card by using the largest Capsule Star Studded Borders die to die cut my red oval. I then used the Capsule Basic dies to die cut my white layers. I used the Pretty Picado embossing folder to add the embossed detail to the largest oval and the Star Studded Borders to create the blue star edge that I placed around the smaller oval.

Next, I used the Star & Stripes Bow to create my Americana bow and the Land of Liberty set and matching die for my sentiment. Lastly, I used Pretty Picado Blooms (again) to die cut a few florals to add to my card. I just love how all of these products can be mixed and matched to give you so many fun options.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my cards. 

Enjoy your day,

Dana
