TGIF!
Happy Friday!
Hope you have had a nice week.
Mine has been busy with some traveling, gardening and life stuff. I did manage to make a few cards. This is the last one for the week. I'm off to travel for the weekend so the craft room has been cleaned and prepped for when I return on Monday!
I wanted to play along with Color Hues again and my first plan didn't really work how I had envisioned. So this is my complete left turn to something totally different than original plan. I quite like it I have to say.
Another new to me die that I have not had the chance to play with - the Abstract Mountain die by Ellen Hutson. The word die is also pretty new and never used until now. I started by ink blending cardstock in Sage and then one in Cotton Candy and cut them both out. I cut an A2 size of Sizzix Stick It sticky and adhered it to one side of an A2 cardstock piece. Then, I adhered each layer of my die cut to it to make it easier to align them. I did ink up the bottom layer a little more for more contrast. I also bumped up every other layer beginning with the bottom one to add some interesting dimension. The moon was cut from the top of the pink layer. I glued the whole panel to the lace scalloped frame layer, and added the word die. I had an inked sentiment for it but decided I liked the word die better.

Thanks for joining us for the Color Hues challenge!
I just loved this die when Karen W. used it for her winning card at JUGS last week! I love your pink/green colors and never would have thought to use them for this scene - it's brilliant, Nance! WWCD!
