Having another play with my new Spellbinders Be Bold Blooms dies
.....
I am really enjoying playing with these dies and die cuts.
I started with rummaging through my offcuts/snippets ..... and made a selection of colours that I thought might work well. I die-cut the flowers and leaves multiple times in multiple colours and then set about making up various combinations of flowers, stems and leaves.
The background is left over from a previous card - I think that might be the last of the gorgeous dark blue. I used the Waffle Flower A6 Layers die to cut the
cardfront to the perfect size.
Playing
with the layout is lots of fun.
A final touch of bling added randomly around the card ...... if you
call playing with the positioning for a good 5 minutes before deciding
on final layout random LOL
I am really
pleased with the way this card turned out .... especially considering it
is made entirely with snippets/offcuts (except the white 300gsm
cardbase).
Linking this card with the following challenges:
