The background for these card was created using a chevron background die. The die cuts all the layers of the chevron and then they must be pieced together.
I cut the die three times in different shades of blue. My first attempt at piecing it all together was a disaster which is why I ended up with just two cards instead of three. It was difficult to use foam tape to raise some sections as the surrounding pieces were very easy to slide just a bit too far underneath the raised pieces. I ended up using temporary adhesive on all the pieces and then lifting the ones I wanted on foam tape and adhered them afterwards.
Since the background was quite dark, I stamped a bright set of flowers and die cut them. One was added to each card base and a sentiment was embossed in white for each. I added some Stickles around the floral image on each card and brushed the flowers with gold shimmer.
