Thanks - You make all the difference!



Here's a card I made for the die cut challenges at Ozaak and Simon Says Stamp challenge. I'm also entering it Young Crafters Unite where they challenge us to try a new technique and I did something I've never tried before - create a background/pattern using die cuts in an echoing effect (repetition and picked up bg color in my flowers - hope I understood the technique correctly (-: ) You'll find the description here:  Scrapbookers Paradise. If you haven't seen Angela's Scrapbook layout there you should go right away - it is AWESOME - how I wished I could scrapbook like her!


I'm also entering it for the Thank You card challenge at Moxie Fab World and at Papertake weekly it is Creatures great and small.
Die from Lifestyle Crafts, stamp from Waltzing Mouse and chipboard from October Afternoon


Have a wonderful Week-end, hugs, Karin
