July 1 -- These months go so fast, don't they? July 1 means the start of a new challenge at Dies R Us Challenges. The requirements are easy peasy. The theme is anything goes, and use a brand of die sold in the Dies R Us Store. They sell lots and lots of wonderful dies, so that's really easy to do! Shop the Dies R Us Store and you'll see for yourself!
I have a few friends that live out of state and I try to send them cards every week or so. I'm always in need of friendship cards. So, when I saw this Crafter's Companion connecting word die, I knew I had to have it...
I cut the 'Friend' word die out of the middle of the 6x6 card, then put the green card behind it to add some stability. I found the pretty floral paper in my stash, and it looked like summer to me, so I used it to add color to the panels of the card. The dragonfly die is by Cheery Lynn. I have used the small one here, which is no longer available, but the large dragonfly size is.
I hope you can join us these next 2 weeks for our 'Anything Goes' with a brand of die sold in the Dies R Us Store challenge! A gift certificate will be awarded, and 3 designer choice awards.

ReplyDeleteHi Julie. Just stopping in for a “hello”. I see your posts all of the time. I just don’t have time to comment on al of them. I’m still working and have 3 more grandkids that we watch pretty often. You are such a talented card maker-this is such a pretty card. I remember when you and I were just starting out with the Crop Chocolate challenges 😉. Take care!
