One of my favorite things to do is use die cuts! Recently I have been scoping challenges for ways to share my projects but also to get me to try new things.
Cheery Lynn Designs has a great challenge this week to use a frame
I started with the
Cathedral Lace Frame and decided it looked perfect for a lantern.There is just enough of a frame to connect all the pieces.
This is on a white background so you can see I used some beautiful
Noelle White Crochet Lace from
Really Reasonable Ribbon to accent and decorate.
I own about 8-10 of Cheery Lynn dies and notice I always choose such intricate patterns-aren't they beautiful?
This
Victorian Romance Flourish is so beautiful and worked perfect on the ends and backed up to each other.
I decided to accent with a few center pearls from
S A Crafters.
I used the
Butterfly Bundle to make double butterflies-one in card stock, and one in Vellum.
I have a few other challenges I want to enter:
Gingersnap Creations-Use two colors
Paper Pretties-use a die or punch
Flutter by Wednesdays- butterfly and photo inspiration
Anything Challenge-altered anything but a card
Outlawz- use WHITE and add a flourish
Crafty Bloggers Network- Shabby Chic
Make My Monday- Victorian Romance
Crazy Challenge- Use a die or punch
Victorine Challenge- Use lace
So do you think I used the dies in a creative way?
Thanks for popping in and checking out my lantern-Have a great day!
