Seasonal Layers Thinlit Dies from Stampin' Up!

In case you missed my earlier card using the Colorful Seasons stamp set and coordinating Seasonal Layers Thinlit, here is another card using that set. It is a totally different look than my earlier card, yet both use the new Color Theory suite of products.

I used Basic Black for the basecard. The background layer uses the Fresh Flowers Designer Stack in Lemon Lime Twist. Take a look at the video below to see the other colors this stack comes in. The two chairs were cut from Basic Black cardstock using the Seasonal Layers Thinlit Dies. They are layered on a piece of Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack with a Lemon Lime Twist matt. This paper is gradated shades of green from darker to lighter.

I LOVE the detail in these leaves. Coordinates with detailed leaf stamps for layering.

The two detailed leaves were die cut out of Basic Black cardstock using the Seasonal Layers Thinlit. The gradated papers in the Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack come in four colors that are prefect for seasonal card designs, calendars, or seasonal scrapbooking. They also coordinate with the papers in the Fresh Lorals Designer Series Paper Stack. I cut the two leaves using the Seasonal Layers THinlit; one in Lemon Lime Twist and the other out of Vellum cardstock. The sentiment is from the Colorful Seasons stamp set, which coordinates with this die set. All of the items in the Color Theory Suite used on this card will be available in the new catalog, just 3 weeks away!
