Neat & Tangled: Succulent Cover Plate

Hi there! Welcome to the final day of the May Neat & Tangled release countdown! All of the new products are available in the Neat & Tangled Store NOW!

Today I'm using the new Succulent Cover Plate. This is a really cool die, and there were a lot of different ideas I had for ways to use it. I still want to try some different things, but for my card today I  decided to do a little more watercoloring.

So first, I impressed the die into some watercolor paper using an embossing mat through my Big Shot instead of the cutting pads. After I had a nice impression, I used my Zig Clean Color brush markers to color in all the petals and background.

After I finished my watercoloring, I cut out two of the Succulent Cover plate dies out of just plain white card stock. I glued these both over my watercolored piece. 

My sentiment is from the Calathea stamp set, and I white embossed it onto black card stock, and cut it out with a banner dies from the Scalloped Dies. The swirly white die cut you see underneath the banner is the bottom part of the Hello There Die. I thought it needed a little something :)

Be sure to stop by the Neat and Tangled Blog to see all of the design team inspiration!
