Neat & Tangled July Release - Day 4


Today's reveal at Neat & Tangled is one of my favorites.  Danielle created this gorgeous set of embroidered florals and sentiments, and it coordinates perfectly with my Hoop Die!  In fact, it includes a hoop die image in the exact dimensions of the hoop die.  If you're not a die cutter, but you loved Hoop Die, this is a must have.  There's also a set of dies that coordinate with the embroidered images.


I kept today's card very clean and simple.  I wanted a modern take on this set that can be very traditional.


The hoop was stamped and embossed with Liquid Platinum embossing powder.  I also die cut the hoop, but used just the center portion, since it matches up perfectly with the die.

I stamped and embossed the floral cluster and sentiment with the Liquid Platinum, and also added a bit of embossing on the edges of the circle.  The images were very carefully colored with Distress Ink and a water brush.  Then the circle was popped up over the hoop image with foam tape.  I added a very thin mat and rounded the corners too.

OK, make sure to head over to the Neat & Tangled blog, you definitely want to check out the rest of the team's projects and leave a comment because Danielle is giving away a Handstitched set.  Be sure you leave comments on all the release week posts here too.  I'm giving away a Faceted stamp set as well as a You Can Do Anything Die this week.
