The first of January, a brand new year and a brand new challenge at Dies R Us Challenge Blog. I started with the Memory Box jumbo peony that I cut with white card stock sponged with pickled raspberry distress oxide ink. I wanted to use this pretty paper that I got from Honey Bee stamps, I cut some frames using the different dies listed below and just played with the pieces until I got something I liked. I did not use a sentiment because it could work for many different occasions.
Things from the DRU STORE
Impression Obsession All in One FrameWe hope you will join us for this Anything Goes Challenge using a brand of die available at the DRU STORE .
When I see this card, I see that branches of the fir tree which remind me of winter and then I see the peony which make me think of the summer. It just reminds me that out of every winter comes a new season and a new time to enjoy. I sure hope that 2021 is that new time for all of us. I know, I am thinking deep this early on a New Years Day. I can't help it. Love this card.
