I haven't used it for ages. In the past I've just die cut it and added it to a background. This time I wanted to try and use it in a different way.
I die cut it out of masking paper and added the mask to a piece of white shimmer cs. I then sponged and brushed a couple of shades of blue Distress ink over it.
I removed the mask. I die cut the three letters of "joy" out of a scrap of aqua/turquoise shimmer cs and glued it over the letters on the card.
I mounted it on fun foam on a matching white shimmer cs card base. And embellished it with blue and white sequins.
Head on over to CAS Christmas to see what the rest of the Design Team and our wonderful Guest Designer, Claire (String Bows Blog). You have until February 24th to link up your card. Please be sure it is clean and simple, and includes the theme of "joy" in some way.
I'm also linking it up to our sister challenge, CAS Mix-Up as the challenge there is "Stencil from Die-Cuts".
