In the Pink


 I'm ready for spring, so I made a spring-like card today.  I used a set of Sizzix dies I bought a while back that containts a bunch of different styles of flowers and leaves. I pulled out a bunch of different shades of pink snippets and randomly die-cut them (fitting as many dies as I could on one snippet, running them through the Cuttlebug, then starting with another snippet). Then I stacked them into interesting multi-layered flowers and added leaves cut from another snippet. For added interest, I embossed another pink snippet using a Hobbycraft spring flower EF and layered that panel under the other elements on the mini-slimline card. 

The sentiment panels are from the same Sizzix die set, also cut from snippets.  The white, smaller panel has a pale green ink sponged around the edges.

This card is entered in these challenges:

  1. A beautifully designed card full of snippets.

    Have had to close the Playground treehouse due to Storm Eunice having a tantrum. Will reopen asap. X
