Goodbye to Lawn Fawn at Die Cut Divas
I hope the new year has given you
a good start and inspiration for the rest of the year.
The Die Cut Divas challenge will end at 9:00 p.m. Pacific time, so I hope you hop on over to enter the challenge.
Lawn Fawn's Prize is a $25 gift card.
I really love this card. It turned out exactly as I hoped. I watched the YouTube video to put together the Platform die, which was so easy to follow. The die is not that hard to put together, really, just knowing where to glue the sections needs to be followed for best results.
I colored all the critters, bow, hearts, leaves and flowers which were already die cut by Cindy. I die cut a piece of Window Plastic in a circle and trimmed it into about a 3/4th circle to fit at the very back of the platform. I find the Window Plastic is a sturdy film for such a backing. I decorated to my heart's content, even sticking some of the flowers and mouse on the plastic. You can cover the back with the tops of the flower if you wish to hide any glue dots.
I don't want to give this away! But I will... sniff, sniff. LOL

First Christmas Card of the Year
I never would have thought of making my background with the rays of a sun, but the Christmas Kickstart Challenge made me think outside my little box. had some time yesterday to cut out the dies I needed and do most of the card, but still had to choose sentiments today and final touches.
Sounds like a beauty contest?

I'm not sure if the stenciled backdrop makes this feel like Winter, but it certainly will brighten any one's Winter Blues!

Card Chain Challenge Reveal for December
I really enjoyed the challenge at the Card Chain Challenge in December. It was such a fun challenge to participate in. Here are the selections we could make in the Tic-Tac-Tic-Tac-Toe challenge!
I chose Funny, Black, Friendship, Snow Flakes and Pop up. This is an extremely busy card, but it's a happy card! I hope I met the challenge line.
Is it funny? I think so.
There's black and a snow flake on the POP UP card.
This card is for a friend!
