Congrats

HI Bloggers.

I thought I'd share a card made using the same die as in yesterday's post but show it used in a different way -

For the background, I used the inner die from the Spellbinders Medallion Three Die D-Lite and cut it several times into a piece of Bright White Card. I matted it onto a slightly larger piece of Sky Blue Card.

I cut the small die from the Spellbinders Octagon Strips and Accents Cut, Fold & Tuck Die Set several times out of a paper from Phill Martin's Blossom 8 x 8 Paper Pad. I folded and tucked, added a 5mm White Pearl and popped them on the centres of the medallions.

I cut the tag from the Spellbinders Octagon Strips and Accents Cut, Fold & Tuck Die Setout of the same  paper from Phill's Blossom Paper Pad. I folded and tucked and added a 5mm White Pearl. I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Meadow Circles Stamp Set onto Bright White Card using Watering Can Archival. I trimmed it with scissors and added it to the CFT Tag.

I assembled the card as shown piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.

  16. Nice die that Spellbinders Medallion. The centres are cute made with Phil M's papers. Justrite sentiment - I have some and must check if they include 'congrats' which I think works particularly well for young people. Thanks.
