*** March Card Challenge at Swirlydoos***

Hi all,

Today I'm sharing a card with you!

I created this for Bec's March Card Challenge at Swirlydoos Kit Club.

The theme for this month card challenge was - Die Cutting.

So here it is:

Here are close ups of details.

I used a Creative Expressions Die called 'Fern Trio' for the leaves,

and a Spellbinders die ' Elegant Labels 4' for the intricate background  - cut twice in two different colours and using one section from each cut to get the two tone colour effect. This was backed with a pattered paper from Prima Princess collection on a card made to approx.5x7" from the Centura card.

My flowers  and brads are all from previous Swirlydoos Kits.

I love this 'Happy Birthday' script stamp, it gives a great effect used as a background stamp.

I stamped this over the pink card (middle part of the Spellbinders die) which I had dry brushed over with gesso to give a soft shabby look to the pink.
