Just playing with dies...

Whilst browsing around the web earlier on this evening, I saw a fab card, which you can check out here.. and I thought, I've got that die.. so I decided to hunt it out and use it.

I love the way that the corners were cut with the die, so here's mine that I recreated..

Now I know I love my pastel colours, but I just think the pink goes really well with the intricate die cut.

Here it is in more detail. And the flowers? Well, they were cut from dies too. Here they are in a little more detail.

The flowers were all cut from white card, then inked over with pink ink and a baby wipe, just leaving the edges slightly darker than the rest of the petal.

The flowers were shaped with my pokey tool and a spray of water to allow the petals to shape.

I hope you like this card... I think it looks lovely to say I was only playing with scraps of paper and card!!

Until next time...
Happy Crafting!!!
