Poppy Posy Impression Inlay Card

I love inlay techniques and the Poppy Posy Impression Dies from LDRS Creative are perfect for it! All this card needed was a bit of die-cutting and ink blending to make an impact!

The Poppy Posy Impression Dies have two dies - one that cuts a shadow and a second that cuts the outline as well as all the inner pieces. I cut the shadow from white cardstock and then used the main die to cut a piece of black cardstock. I popped out all the inner pieces and kept just the outline. I glued the outline to the shadow and then cut the main die again from a piece of white cardstock. I popped out the centers and leaves, but left all the pieces of the flowers intact. I added some pink ink with a blender brush to create colorful flowers. I added some green ink to the leaves, but left the center pieces white. Once all my pieces were inked I started puzzling! I used liquid adhesive and added all the pieces back into the outline.

I kept the background simple and stamped the Natural Granite 6x6 Stamp with Alloy Hybrid Ink onto a white card. I trimmed just a sliver off of each side and adhered the panel to a black card base. I wanted a bold, but simple sentiment, so I cut the word "Hi" using the Natasha Alphas Jumbo XL Upper Dies and the Natasha Alphas Jumbo XL Lower Dies. I added all of my pieces with foam tape and that's it!
