A project from our live show MY PODCAST - Catch my latest updates broadcast 8th December 2025 · 08/12/2025
Create an elegant card featuring a decorative floral banner die-cut on black cardstock with pink and grey vase designs. The intricate banner design is layered with delicate foliage sprigs for added dimension. This sophisticated card combines die-cutting techniques with careful layering to achieve a striking contrast between the black background and coloured elements.
1Select a piece of black cardstock and place it on your cutting mat.
2Position the floral banner die plate onto the black cardstock, ensuring it is centred and aligned as desired.
3Position the floral banner die plate on the black cardstock. Secure it in place using low-tack tape or hold it steady with your hand to prepare for die cutting.
4Run the black cardstock with the floral banner die through your die-cutting machine to cut out the decorative frame shapes.
5Carefully remove the cut banner piece from the black cardstock. The die-cut floral banner design will lift away, revealing the intricate floral details around the rectangular and circular frames.
6Cut the coordinating circle frame pieces from the floral banners die set using your die-cutting machine. Position the dies on black cardstock and run through the machine to create the decorative circular frames with floral embellishments.
7Position the black banner piece onto your pink card base, ensuring it's centred as the focal point of your card. Press down gently to secure it in place.
8If desired, die cut the circle frames from white cardstock and layer them behind the black banner pieces to add dimension and contrast.
9Cut in the circle piece from the banner design to create an opening where you can add a sentiment or decorative element to complete your card.
