SIMPLE INLAID DIE CUTTING

Hot diggity dog, it’s Friday! I know, another Clever Sausage card. And pun. But, seriously, how can you not chuckle over this one?

After I die cut a circle, I split it with a Landscapes die (the grass), and ink blended the sky and the lawn. My secret weapon for holding the the two pieces together: Scotch tape on the back. BOOM! And, then I just 3D mounted the whole shebang onto a square card.

Watercolored all the stamped images, then die cut ‘em; trimmed the hot dot bun’s foreground away so I could mount the back onto the other side of the dog, and 3D mount the bun on his front side.

The ketchup squiggle? It’s part of the coordinating die set. I wonder if folks noticed that. Watercolored a tomato red color swatch onto a scrap of watercolor paper and then die cut it out. Finishing touch after assembling the whole card was some glossy accents. Cuz ketchup is always enticingly glossy and yummy looking, right?! Heh, heh, heh!

Have a fab weekend!

Stay home. Stay healthy. Stay crafty!
