The Card Chain Challenge Reveal for February

Card Chain Challenge

Time for the Big Reveal! 

Here are the options I had available to try.

As soon as I saw DIE CUTTING, I knew I'd make a card using one or more die cuts. 

I have used this Poppy Stamps die cut before, but I thought I'd just cut out the leaves from green cardstock.  I forgot that I could have cut a center from white cardstock until I had already glued all the flowers on.  Of course this was also after I found out I had glued the top flowers on thinking it was the bottom of the card and had to carefully lift the butterflies where the daisies are now placed.  

The life of a card maker.  hehehe

I found a sentiment that really fit perfectly for the center of the card.  But here's where the best surprise was, the friend die.  I love how you can use either the individual letters or an outline of the letters.  I die cut the bottom layer (in white) three times to make sure it made an adequate stop for my easel card.

Poppy Stamps Fern and Daisy Pop Up Easel card dies
