Hello dear friends!
It's time once again for a new challenge over
on the Sisterhood of Crafters Blog!
Our hostess today is Terri and the theme she has chosen is:
Use DIES
Here's what I have to share ...

| Inside |
The dies I have used today are:
Since this card was created as part of a gift set for an Amish girl, I thought
the farm scene was appropriate and I've left plenty of room for her to
write a personal note inside.
Here's a peek at how I colored & pieced my card . . .
I die cut my scene twice.
On the first cut I colored in the pop out pieces that are the
sky and grassy areas.
On the second cut I popped out all the pieces then attached
my 'outline' to another sheet of white card stock
so I would have a place to reinsert & adhere my popped out (colored) pieces.
Some of my colored pieces weren't cut well so I reinserted
my die cut panel into the die and ran it through again. THEN I began
gluing each piece into the appropriate spot.
My coloring was done with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.
I hope you'll come join in our challenge fun at The Sisterhood of Crafters!

This is a great fly over state scene. It's always beautiful when you're flying and can see these farms everywhere across certain parts of certain states. A lovely car and a great die. [Bunny]
