Framed Floral Card

This is the first time I've used this lovely Spellbinders die that I won earlier in the year and I can see it becoming one of my favourites.  I've used my new die with some snippets to make a small notecard.


To make this card I used:
     5.5" x 4.25" white matt card blank
     Spellbinders Designer Series 'Framed Floral Card Front' & My Favorite Things 'Fishtail Flags' dies
     Sizzix Framelits 'Floral Hello' stamp
     Versafine Vintage Sepia ink
     Snippets of white matt card and Lili of the Valley 'Antebellum' paper


I used both the floral panel and the frame to cut a snippet of white paper.  After removing all the small pieces from the panel I attached a snippet of turquoise paper behind the panel and attached it to the front of the card blank.  I used brown ink to stamp the sentiment onto another snippet of white card and then cut it with a fishtail flag - moving the die so I could shorten the length of the flag.  The flag was then attached to the top of the card.

I am entering the following challenges:
     A Cut Above - Anything Goes with a Die Cut
     Addicted to Stamps & More - Die Cuts and/or Stencils (I've used two dies)
     Allsorts - Anything Goes
     Daisy Chain Challenge - Not Square
     NBUS - Challenge 73 (I've used my new Spellbinders die)
     Snippets Playground - Challenge 504
