Die Cut Flower Card

By
This week at Less is More the challenge is to use 'Punches or Die Cuts' - what a great idea. I love using my Cuttlebug so I decided on die cuts - here is my card


I cut out a section at the bottom of my card using a square Nestie, then i die cut some Marianne Creatables flowers from Sahara Sand card stock. These were then glued in place along the aperture. The flat backed opals are from Martha Stewart.
A Stampin' Up sentiment from the Precious Butterflies set was stamped on to card and also die cut - another flower was placed behind.
Thanks for looking - Jacqueline xx

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
