This week we have to use layered die cuts on the Make it Monday feature by Papertrey. The talented Dawn McVey explains in a tutorial how to do that. She has some valuable tips on how to make this as easy as possible!
I used a paper swatches from Home Depot for this card. Since it was kind of drizzly and cloudy yesterday, I opted for a sunny yellow.
Supplies: Papertrey Rickrack border dies and Filigree Border Die, Papertrey Think Big Favorites, gems.
I frequently use paper swatches for my cards. They have great colors and you immediately get matching colors in the same color group. On Operation Write Home Nancy talks about those swatches and you can link up your card.
Hm - I am wondering if this could be put into the Pixie's Crafty Snippets Playground, because of my use of paint swatches??? I'll let Diane decide that....
And lastly I am linking this up with the Die Cut Divas - Let's celebrate challenge
