March My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #5 + Giveaway!

Emily Midgett

Hi there! Welcome back to our March kit countdown.The Creative Team has been showcasing the beautiful main kit as well as the fabulous add-ons, and we have a few more projects up our sleeves before the release! Remember, the kit will be available tomorrow, Monday, March 5th at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific. Don't forget to leave comments on every post to increase your chance to win a kit before you can buy one!! Now, Emily has some white-on-white-on-white inspiration for you today....

Good afternoon! Emily here with you sharing some more inspiration using several of the elements of the main kit, as well as an add-on or two. ;) This month's kit is, quite simply put, a necessity. It's full of great basics to have in your arsenal. 

I've used several elements from the main kit today, as well as a few of the add-ons. With super detailed dies, one of my absolute favorite ways to showcase them is with a monochromatic color scheme, and what's more monochromatic than white-on-white? To start, I die cut the Bold Graphic Confetti Die (one of the amazing add-ons available to purchase tomorrow). This is a perfect, almost neutral background die that adds just the right amount of texture to the background of your card. I cut it from white card stock, then spritzed it with the beautiful White Iridescent Shimmer Spray, also available as an add-on. The photos don't do this beautiful Shimmer Spray justice; it really adds a lovely pearlescent sheen that you can see best in real life! 


The main kit includes some simply stunning calligraphic word dies. For this project, I die cut the "thank you" three times from white card stock, then adhered them all together to create a dimensional die cut. I die cut one of the kit's included "fancy" shapes, the diamond, and heat embossed in silver the coordinating "for." I also silver heat embossed "everything you do" on a strip of white card stock. I adhered it all to the card front using both liquid and dimensional adhesive, then added a few of the sequins included in the main kit. 

Well, that's all for me today! This kit is, in my opinion, a must have, even for those dies alone, then you add in the rest of the goodies included... swoon! 

Don't forget to win a kit before you can buy it! Just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post! We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from all the comments left across all countdown posts, and announce the winner first thing Monday morning, March 5th, before the kit launches at 1 pm Eastern. The more you comment, the more chances to win! Have fun, and good luck!!

Oh…I think this is my favorite. I do love the tone-on-tone. But, Memorial Day hasn’t come around…what’s that rule about white? LOL Yes, the brightness of the white is stunning—the faint shimmer gives *just enough to catch your eye. TYVM Emily, for this beautiful card!
