THE LITTLE THINGS

I've been playing with some new dies, and have really enjoyed the combination of kraft cardstock and patterned paper! Here's a simple card I made using my new dies:
Here's how I made it:
I started with an A2 size kraft cardbase. All the patterned paper used is from MME's Miss Caroline "Dolled Up" 6x6 paper pad. I cut the woodgrain oval and distressed the edges with Frayed Burlap distress ink. I glued a strip of burlap ribbon down the center of the card, then adhered the oval to the card with foam squares. The butterfly was cut from the Memory Box Isabella and Pippi butterfly dies. The die cuts were glued together down the center only, then adhered to the oval die cut with Glossy Accents. The banner was created using Simon Say's Stamp's "Tilted Banner die. The sentiment is from Hero Arts "Find Joy" stamp set. This was adhered to the oval die cut (which was already raised by the foam squares). The banner ends were adhered directly to the card base. The adhesive pearls are from Hero Arts "Sea" Cardmaking Essentials Kit.

Once again, thanks so much for stopping by!!
