Diane's Exploring Cricut challenge this week..

Your creation must include flowers!

And here's my interpretation...


Cuts

Elegant Edges - Compass Border - pg 66 - 5.25 in
Spring Cottage - Chickadee, Branch, Flowers - 3 in

1. Cut pink card stock base 5.25 x 12 inches. Score and fold at 6 inch mark.

2. Prepare above Cricut cuts.

3. Place flower cuts on soft side of mouse pad and lightly break paper fibers by rubbing with stylus. Adhere flower layers together.

4. Cut white card stock sentiment panel, 4.5 x 5.25 inches. Stamp sentiment on bottom right had corner with black ink.

5. Adhere pink border (from Elegant Edges) to bottom half of white sentiment panel with adhesive.

6. Adhere white panel with attached border to card stock base with dimensional foam.

7. Place die cuts where desired, adhering with dimensional foam.

8. Finish border with pearls.

Love your card. I love the daintiness of it and how the edges were done. Great use of the bird and keeping black and white really makes him pop off the page. Love the additional of the pearls. I just love it.
