I used:
- 6" square white card from Hobbycraft (their own brand too) with the bottom edge already die cut. They have some pretty designs in the range too :)
- butterfly and the little heart came from Penny Black's Stickeroo sheet called 'Keeping Love'
- a strip of raspberry pink card from the snippets folder, attached to the inside of the card on the back portion so the die cutting 'pops' more
- all corners of the card have been rounded off with a punch
- SU sentiment stamped using 'Melon Mambo'- all corners of the card have been rounded off with a punch
The forecast seems warm in Southern Spain where we're heading, but with rain - sigh :(

Hi Di,
ReplyDeletevery pretty card.Thanks for your comments on my blog and for invitation. Maybe I will join you next time, but I don t promiSe, OK. Tamara
OMG That diecut card base is so gorgeous! I can't wait for our next visit to England as I am so going to stock up on all these different, gorgeous card bases...I think I will need one small rectangle suitcase just for cards!!!!! teehee
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely card...well done!
Can't wait to get to my room and start my Xmas cards...I have a plan for the one design that I have chosen to make 30 or 40 of the same design...but first I am going to use up tons of my Xmas snippets and make them into cards! You gave me that idea a while back! So watch for steady visits to the playground!!!
Oh oh...I'd better check and see if there is a maximun...i was thinking of making 5 cards this week...???
What a beautiful card! This butterfly border is amazing! Hugs! xx

Great sentiment too.
Found the heart LOL!!!

Wow, what a pretty card, Di. I thought you'd die cut it yourself. We have a Hobbycraft opening down the road at the end of November. I hope they sell these!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous card.
Have you got room for a little extra person in your case??? I bet Spain will be lovely. Have a great time.

Like Lisa, I thought you'd die cut the card base yourself. What a great base card.
