I've made another note card for my card box - this one uses lots of snippets of textured card. Steve bought me the Papermania card pack several years ago and I'm now reduced to a box of snippets which I'm trying to reduce - without much success!
To make this card I used:
C6 white matt card blank
My Favorite Things 'Fishtail Flags' and Altenew 'Simply Hello' dies
Snippets of white matt card. Papermania textured card and white printer paper
I die cut lots of fishtail flags from different colour textured card using the smallest die. I attached these to a piece of paper using glue so I had a little 'wriggle room' to line up the strips. When they had dried I used the largest fishtail flag to cut the top and bottom of the strip. The die wasn't quite the right size to fit across the card so I cut one side of the strip, removed the die and lined it up on the other side before die cutting the rest of the strip. This panel was then attached to the front of the card blank. I die cut 'hello' twice from a snippet of white matt card, layered the two sentiments and attached them to the card.
I am entering the following challenges:

Gorgeous card Kath and such clever use of those dies with your snippets. I have that set and can see how much work it must have taken. Well done!

Hi Kath, a fabulous way to use up plain cardstock scraps, it is very effective with the white die cut sentiment. Have a wonderful week... Megan
A fantastic mix of colours Kath and I love the repeat of the colours in the same order which works well, and the double layered whiten 'hello' really stands out over the top. I would like to wish you a very Happy Christmas and am looking forward to visiting you throughout the coming year. x
Thank you so much for supporting my Dies theme at Allsorts this time. the HELLO looks great atop those gorgeous colours. Sarah
