Happy Spring
Hello crafters! I selected a piece of yellow dotty paper from the Stripes 'N Dots Paper pad. I added it to the top of a piece of white card and used a thin strip of white card across the join area. I cut the Stained Glass Tulip Egg die in white with another piece of white card as I cut it. I used the bottom piece of white card and coloured the image with markers. I covered the image with a sticky adhesive sheet then added the white die \cut on top. I used Diamond White glitter on the exposed sticky areas. I cut the outer die from the Tulip Egg in white and seated the egg die on top of it. I added it to the top of the card with mounting foam. I cut the Happy Spring sentiment out of the yellow dotty paper, then added it to the die cut in white with the outer die to create a shadow backing die. I paper pieced the yellow letters into it then added it to the bottom of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8 3/4" in size. All for now Sue x
