Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and JoAnn wants us to use red as the main colour.
Or play along with our anything goes birthday option.
I've had this die for a long time and only used it once or twice.
I coloured some cardstock with a mix of red distress spray stains to pop underneath, but there doesn't look like much variation in the shades here!
The sentiment is one I have used a lot, couldn't find a stamp that I thought suited the die better.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday, beautiful blooms
Supplies:
Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; Memory Box wild blooms die;
Distress spray stains in various reds; Paper Smooches sentiment sampler stamp; versafine clair nocturne ink & clear ep; hammered cardstock (Hobbycraft have changed the look of it.)
Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x
A fabulous card - I have that die and almost used it for my card.

A fantastic CAS card Cathy and love the red behind the cut into the card flowers, and the black stamped happy birthday beneath grounds them brilliantly, and the black mat coordinates perfectly. x
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying all these wee pops of red, lovely CAS card. Thanks for playing with us at AAA Cards and doing the optional twist too (birthday).
ReplyDeleteSo attractive and pretty is your CAS card. It is fun to use a die or stamp that you have not used and find it is so amazing.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is a beautiful card with the cut out and bright red underneath. The black mat sets it off so well. Great card, Cathy.
ReplyDeleteWow! The contrast of the red and the white makes those flowers pop off the paper! Such a pretty effect. It's a wonderful CAS card, thank you for sharing it with us at AAA Cards. We love to see you work in our gallery!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful CAS card Cathy. I thought it was a stamp at first, but read that it is a die cut and the red shows through. Love it.
ReplyDeleteOh this is pretty! and the Paper Smooches font made me smile.
