Rise and Fall Wood Panel Die-Cut Card with Layered Sentiment

A project from our live show CATCH UP with Toni for TECHNIQUE TUESDAY in the HTCN studio broadcast 19th Oct 21 · 19/10/2021

Use a decorative wood panel die to create a dimensional card with a rise and fall effect. Layer the die-cut wood panels at alternating heights to create visual interest, then add a stamped sentiment in gold embossing. This technique transforms a simple background into a sophisticated card with depth and texture.
