I think when I bought this Giant Lawn Fawn Outlined Happy Birthday Die Cut, somehow I thought it would be a nice single cut to use with Gelli Prints. I didn't realize it really cuts in three different designs in the background die. For my cards, I used 2 of the three designs allowing the background to be the third (rather than trying to piece in all of those little bits.
I cut the die from two different Gelli Prints on cardstock and die cut a blue rectangle to attach them to. I'm linking-up at the NBUS (Never Before Used Schtuff) Challenge with my cards.
This one was my favorite … I think the colors pop the most.
I like the reverse of the colors, but feel like I should have used a yellow card base for more contrast (sometimes I don't see it until I photograph). However, now that I look at the photograph of the card, I think I pretty much like them both the same.
I'm also linking-up at the Crafty Calendar Die Cut Challenge, which is sponsored by Lawn Fawn.
I'm also joining the Lawnfawnatics Challenge with my card inspired by the song that played every year on my birthday throughout my childhood – Birthday by The Beatles.
They are both very bright and very festive, Stef, just as a birthday card should be! It’s nice when our “mmm?” turns into liking! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
Really fun card!
Wow – this is wonderful, so bright and beautiful. Love it.
