September Reveal for Card Chain Challenge

 Reveal Time for the Card Chain Challenge

When I saw the Inlaid Die Cut option, I knew that's where my heart was.  I wasn't sure of exactly what die I was going to use, but...  I used the postage stamp dies.  I never used the inside dies before and I thought why not now.  I inserted white panels into the empty spaces "inlaid them" and it worked out great.  There is one inlay under the lamp shade that doesn't show up, but the other two are at the bottom left.  I used Nuvo drops on the flowers under the lamp and on top of the tree to give this more depth, although I did pop up the entire Postage die.

Even thought there are inside and outside items on the card, I still think it's cohesive.

What a cute card, Arlene! I know it was appreciated!

It is cohesive you are right. I love how you have mixed up the die cutting with some inlaid and some not. It is one of my favourite techniques too xx
