Slimline Paper Pieced Floral with Rachel Vass Designs

 Hi there.   At Die Cut Divas this month our sponsor is Rachel Vass Designs and our theme is Flowers.   

I tried something a little different with my Rachel Vass florals by paper piecing the florals.

I printed the image -Floral Border Slimline - three times... once on white card stock, one on cream colour paper and once on purple paper.   I cut the white panel with Pink Fresh Studios Essential Mini Slimline dies.  The purple layer was cut with another of the dies from that set.  I used some pencils to add some colour to coloured flowers.  I then fussy cut them and added to the base.   Just prior to Christmas I purchased a Go Press and Foil machine and ordered some Spellbinders foil dies.  This one I foiled with silver foil.  Using this machine is just another way to use your die cut machine... I use a Cuttlebug and the foiling machine goes through perfectly.  

Do come and join us with your Flowers this month.

My card uses a Slimline die cut from Sunny Studios  (this one - used the inner die)
