I had a pack of both outline stickers and die cuts I bought years ago that I never really knew what to do with, in the shape of Oriental dresses and fans. They are quite detailed and large so take up most of a typical card and I was never really sure how to make the most of them.
They seemed just right for this particular card challenge so I decided to make a very quick and simple card using one of the colourful cardboard die cuts. I used a pre-printed card blank which creates quite a busy pattern with the die cut, but the colours and flower shapes are complementary at the same time.
I finished the card with a pink 'special day' sticker.
I really like your card. It's always nice to find a way to use something that you haven't been able to before.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Caroline - I can see you are loving the Library Challenge as much as I am. Great to combine my loves of craft and reading!
ReplyDeleteWhile I was away you commented on my blog about where I get my snarky sentiments from. Well there are several brands I use - Dylusions, which are available on Amazon and from a lot of other retailers, So Suzy which are available from their website but they are in the USA so there is postage to take into account, and Rubberdance which I also get from their website and although it is in Scandinavia the postage isn't too much. I also write some of my own on the computer, choosing suitable fonts and sizes. Rubberdance is at http://www.rubberdance.com/and So Suzy at http://www.sosuzystamps.com/
