When doing the first card for the JUG’s challenge the idea for another popped into my mind. Then I also noticed the challenge at the Sisterhood of Crafters was a blue challenge so I created this card for both. Using the last piece of the shimmery blue CS I die cut the floral elements using a set from MFT called In Focus Floral frames as well as a slimline circle die from the same kit. In my scrap stash I found another piece of pale blue mulberry paper that has a slight silver tone to it so I used it for behind the circles die cut from the silver CS. I pieced in the floral elements. The silver CS is quite thick and I didn’t notice that the die had left marks in it until I had everything together so to cover the marks I added the silver chain border using stickers. I added the layer onto a white card front and then added some flat back pearls here and there. I also found silver happy birthday stickers so I used those on the top layer. This is a very soft pastel looking card and it looks better in R.L. than on the photo.

Beautiful! Your dies cut perfectly. I haven’t pulled mine out since the first time I took forever cutting them. Thanks for the inspiration.

I have a new Platinum as my big Shot has some problems. It cut so much better than the Big Shot. Glad you like the card.

Thanks – I was annoyed when I noticed the lines after I put the card together and had to find a solution or ditch the card.

Yes I like these dies as well. MFT came up with a slimline circle die and they fit perfectly into that.
