Our challenge today was to use some type of die cuts
on your project either by cutting with sizzix or cutting
it out with a Cricut or silouette machine. Each of our
talented ladies is giving you lots of fun ways to create
the little extras that you need for a project without having
to buy them.. You can create them yourself with just
a little inspiration from the things in the photos and the
things around you in your life.....

The title says: Happiness lives in a pair of PINK shoes
- when you are little.
I punched zillions of square pieces of LS007 and then
I randomly cut each piece in 2. Then the puzzling began
to get a frame around the photo. I used one of the
fabulous glittery cardstocks as a base to make the mosaic more fancy *LOL*.

| My Rockin Butterfly by Katarina Damm |
I've used the Rockstar 6x6 paper pad to make this page, together with some of
the 14mm Round tool buttons from Epiphany Crafts, And I used the QK
butterfly as a mask on my page, and as a decoration.
This was a super easy card to make. It took a little time to cut all of the layers,
but the end result was worth all of the effort! First, I stamped three large
and one small flower onto the glitter paper- one set for each color.
Then, I trimmed each down to a manageable size that I could work
with easily. Next, I grabbed my small, sharp scissors and camped out
on my living room floor while watching a baseball game (Go Red Sox!)
and cut the layers out. I layered the flowers using Best Creation
Foam Tape and voila! A bright, clean simple card!
Products Used: BGP208, BGP211, BGP213, BGP216, BGP220,
Best Creation Foam Tape, Lawn Fawn Stamps, Staz-On Ink
LS004, LS008, LS010, LS014, LS013, BGP208
I used tim holtz birdcage and sizzix flower dies. I cut cardboard first
and covered them with rockstar paper for the birdcage
and the gold glitter paper for the wing and BGP224 for the body of the bird.
