Enjoy your Birthday!

Hi, gals!

Time again for my turn at posting a little bit of inspiration.  I'm keeping it very simple today!  I have used only 2 of my favorite dies on this card:  Memory Box Stitched Rectangle Layers (a must have die!) and Wild Rose Studio Olivette Corner (one of my favorite corners!).  Since the digi image I chose was a simple one from A Day For Daisies, I didn't want to get too fussy with the card and let the image speak for itself.  By adding just the right dies, you can turn any image into something fantastic with little effort on your part!

If you are new to using dies in your crafts, don't feel overwhelmed with the choices out there!  Begin by adding some basic shapes to your collection and then add all the "bells & whistles" as you go along.  Sometimes all it takes is just a photo of a card to make you realize you want a particular die!  I can't tell you how many I have ended up adding to my own collection after seeing my team mate's cards!

Be sure you head over to the Dies R Us Challenge Blog too!  A new challenge just began the first of the month and you could win a gift card to the fabulous store!

Until next week, create something that makes you happy!

  1. You're so right about the inspiration! I've gone shopping many times after watching you Dies R Us gals sharing your work. For instance, I love making corner embellishments, and these corner dies really make it easy. Love this beautiful little girl and her sweet vintage look. You kept it true to the vintage look with your colors and paper. Very pretty!
