Always in my heart

I'm on the @alexsyberiadesigns blog today with this cute black and gold Kokeshi doll from the 'Spring in Kyoto' release with @teamspellbinders

All products are available on the alexsyberiadesigns.com (US) and alexsyberiadesigns.co.uk (rest of the world) stores.

Alex Syberia Designs and Spellbinders products:
Kokeshi dolls die set
Parasols press plate
+ Delicate blooms die set
+ Avian allure stamp set and Avian allure die set (sentiment)

To create this card, I hot foiled the Parasols press plate with Spellbinders Matte gold foil on vanilla cardstock. I trimmed the panel down to 4" by 5" and adhered it onto the cardbase with liquid adhesive.

I then die cut the Kokeshi doll from plain colored cardstock, including metallic and glitter cardstock. For the hair, I also used glossy cardstock.

I also die cut two flowers with the Delicate blooms die set from the same cardstocks.

I then assembled the dies with liquid adhesive. I also used tape for the flowers to assemble the leaves and stems together and facilitate their placement onto the background panel. I adhered the tall flower with liquid adhesive and small one with thin foam tape.

I then adhered the doll with thicker foam tape.

To finish the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Avian allure stamp set onto white cardstock. I used the coordinating dies and then adhered it to the card with thin foam tape.
