Celebrate........


Dear blog friends, today I have a very special card using the colors from the JustRite Color Challenge #102. The colors made me feel very warm and tender, so made this for my DH. I just received spellbinders elegant labels 4 in the mail so I had to use it, normally I have a rough sketch in mind before starting a card but this time it was the die I wanted to use for sure. Love spellbinder dies, they have just taken die cutting to another level and are so easy to use, cannot imagine making a card without them. I am slowly working on expanding my die collection, have a lot of the dies on my Christmas list already now all I need to do is impress DH with this cardJ. For my card I started out with cutting out the spellbinders elegant labels 4, stamped and embossed my image. After placing them on top of each other I felt the image was a little small for the die so customized my labels 4 piece by cutting a piece out from the center. I created a window using spellbinders majestic squares, just love this technique so easy and gives the card a third dimension. Fussy cut my stamped image and placed it in the center of my window. Embellished with some rhinestones and my card was ready. I spent about an hour on the project. Hope you all like it and thanks for stopping by…………….
