Negative die cut space | Creating Kindness Blog Hop



Hello, Friends :-)

Thank you for joining us on our Creating Kindness Blog Hop with special guest Linda van Wely-Zwolle.




This month's Theme is "Negative die cut space"


Until a few months ago, I die/punch cut out on a corner of cardstock so I won't waste any cardstock. 

Even if I try so hard to put down the die shape on card stock, there will have waste space left. I felt so bad to throw away even if It so tiny pieces of funky shape card stock that not useful size to do anything.


Therefore I start to die cut on a middle of 4-1/8" x 5-3/4" pre-cut cardstock. It's also a really good way to produce 2 cards in 1.






I could make 2 cards in 1. I wanted to focus on this month's Theme only(also didn't have time to make 2 cards;;;;;;;;;) 

Long story short, I had this idea in my head. so my plan was going to bed early, school run then makes few cards in peace.



BUT BUT BUT

BUT BUT BUT


Of course, It never works when I plan well.

My 2nd boy - Jacob 3yrs started Vomiting at 3am...............
almost every 30mins........................................ HA......................
at that time I was more worrying to wash covers. as I've been washing a cover every single day as Jacob started to wee on a bed middle of the night.... he couldn't go to nursery. I started to get stressed. Thankfully, he fell asleep deeply and no more Vomiting. But he could wake up and Vomiting again at any time. 





I ran in my room, less than 10mins, I finished die - cutting and stamping(Thank you STAMPARATUS!!!!!)
Then start to hesitate to colour the butterflies. I stamped them directly on a card base, so not so suitable to use watercolour paint or alcohol markers.
I wasn't sure how long would take colouring with watercolour pencils.
also, I wanted to colour them in 1 go.
Then an idea was popped up in my head.
Colour them with alcohol markers on a window sheet?! If I mess with color combo or mistake, I simply wipe it with STAMPIN' BLENDS COLOR LIFTER!!!





But there was a problem that the brush marks had been remain on the window sheet. It bugged me even though It's so small that can't even see!
Used the STAMPIN' BLENDS COLOR LIFTER to remove the marks, I realized that It made a beautiful pattern!
Totally happy accident!
This card was the quickest card that I've ever made!!!!
Do you like it? I like it!!
