Happy Monday everyone! Time for a new Lawnscaping Challenge! :)
The
challenge is to create a card/project using a technique that you have
never tried before! It sounds intimidating, but it's actually a great
way to practice some new skills and maybe find a new technique that you
enjoy!
The technique that I tried is partial die cutting! Here is my card:
The
card did not turn out as well as I had hoped, but it was a great
technique to learn! I taped the "smile" die cuts onto the yellow paper
and only die cut until I was close to the bottom of the letters. That
way they are still attached to the yellow paper! Then, I (carefully!)
used an x-acto knife to cut a straight line between the letters and to
the edge of the paper.
This
card features Lawn Fawn's "Good Fortune" stamp set, gold sparkle Lawn
Trimmings, Stitched Scalloped Border die, and Cole's ABCs die. I also
used the heart die from the "Trim the Tree" set to die cut a heart from
cork! That is also a new technique that I tried! :)
Simon
Says Stamp is the sponsor for this challenge and the winner will
receive a $25 gift certificate! Don't forget to play along! And don't forget to see the other projects from the Lawnscaping Design Team! Everyone tried some awesome techniques! :)
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great Monday! :)
