Die Cutting on Digital Prints

 

Hello! Welcome  back to the BPM blog. We are so glad you are here. 

Blank Page Muse just released a new printable paper digital download set, the BPM Summer Citrus Digital Papers, Ephemera, Pockets & Tags Printables. This collection is an 8 page printable sheet with lots of images included. For today's project, I am featuring the full digital papers. There are four colors having the same floral design. You can use this in a lot of ways. I am using it on a card for today's project.

I cut a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" panel on the green and yellow printouts. On the light green printout, with the short side up, I cut a slit every 1/2" using a trimmer. 

I left a 1/2" on the top and a 1/2" on the bottom uncut.

I trimmed the yellow print out into 1/2" on the long side.

I weaved the yellow strips through the slits I created on the light green print out.

You can really get creative with paper weaving but I decided to just make it simple doing a top-back-top-back pattern. The uncut portion of the light green print out helped in keeping the weaved strips stay put.

I made sure that the strips are abutt to each other. 

After adding the strips through the slits, it gets a bit tight making it aifficult to thread anymore strips. I snipped the edges so I can thread more strips until the edge of the panel. 

I added dots of glue to the last strip to secure the weaved strips in place.

I die cut the pieces that I needed to create the card. I trimmed another green digital paper at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". I die cut a window on this panel to create a frame. I die cut a floral set on the orange, yellow and light green digital prints. I die cut extra pieces on white cardstock. I stacked and adhered these pieces to the back of the digital print die cuts to add dimension.

I adhered the frame to the weaved panel. I trimmed off the excess.

I adhered the stem, tucking the end under the frame.

I adhered the flower die cut.

I adhered the circle die cut to the flower.

I adhered the leaves leaving the outer tip raised. To keep it raised, I snucked a clear foam adhesive tape underneath it. This ads some dimension to the leaves.

I added shimmer to the printed white flowers.

I outlined the frame with dash lines using a white gel pen. I added gems to the flower centers.

I hope you like today's project and give this design a try.
