Today is the last challenge for 2015 at Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge, which is for your favourite technique! A nice, open challenge in which you are able to do whatever you like best!
I have chosen to do negative die cutting for my favourite technique, as it is quick, easy and more importantly, effective.
First I die cut a panel with the largest My Favorite Things 'Cross Stitch' rectangle die, then I used Memory Box's 'Dazzling Snowflake' die to die cut a 'window' in the front panel.
Next, I adhered a panel of Stampin' Up's 'Glimmer Paper' underneath and also die cut the sentiment from the same glimmer paper and adhered that to the panel.
Finally, I mounted the whole thing on to a white card base. I also made a second one while I had all the supplies out, but this time I just cut the front panel a little smaller than the base card as I felt this design with the gold was better with just a plain panel. I used some of Stampin' Up's Glimmer Paper' in gold this time for behind the snowflake and the sentiment.
Why not head on over to the HLS CAS challenge and join in the fun! Happy Little Stampers are sponsoring the challenge and there are prizes to be won!
