Hi Everyone, Second post today, so remember to scroll down to see the little snowman!!
I bought a Tim Holtz Bigz Die ages ago, a die with two label type shapes on it and have not really used it forwhat I wanted it for. I had visions of making stamp focals with it, and also making tags with it. Sometimes I have these thoughts and order something and by the time the item arrives I have forgotten what I wanted to do with it!!! I have moved onto the next big thing for me.
So here is a card with this great die.
Did you see I gave it a name, how funny the things I learn, probably not do that again. This card was made on the base originally done with the white base and an embossed and bordered piece that I really have never been able to think beyond how much I disliked the colour.
So today in my clean up, there it was, and I looked through the round the page pieces that Lisa had sent me, made my focal by stamping, embossing a border around the piece and then colouring the edge with sponging to match.
Then Icoloured two of Lisa’s butterflies and made a bow, stuck it all together and added some stickleson the butterfly to make him much more glam.
I really like it, I wonder should I give Lisa any credit for it? Nup. She is wonderful you all know her from Crafting Cottage.
Entered this card in Southern Girls Challenge #35 Show Us Your Sparkle
Beautiful card Lauren. I love how inking around a layer on a project just makes the item ‘pop’ and pulls the card together. Isn’t it funny how we have those colors in our stash that are just not our ‘style’ and how we will gravitate away from them. I love how you incorporated the color in your elements to pull the whole card together……very well done!
Beautiful card Lauren, I love the sentiment on it. It is so elegant looking and with the butterfly and ribbon it just finishes it beautifully. Very good job going outside your comfort colors.
Loving all the layers and the rure Lauren style…that you have soo many of!
Love it Lauren!! That die is awesome!! You should have used it before now!!! LOL!!
