Hello friends, thanks so much for stopping by. Sometimes we are all in need of a very quick card and today I have a 5 minute card for you - okay 10 minutes - you have to love that! Yes it is possible - thanks to my Spellbinders Dies and Little Birdie Crafts Handmade Embellishments
The patterned paper I have used is handmade by the loveliest artist - Carol Cantrell - it really is a 'Work of Art' on it's own. I did not want to detract from the paper, so kept it very simple.
Cut/emboss the middle set of Spellbinders Nestabilities Hemstitch Circles Etched Dies Romancing the Swirl Becca Feeken Using white card stock. The inside of the die cuts have been sponged using Imagine Memento Ink in Summer Sky using a Sponge Dauber. The die cut has been removed and popped up onto the layered card front using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L 3D Foam Squares. This is followed by the Little Birdie Crafts Cactus - precoloured and has it's own foam squares - ready to embellish your card - love it!
The sentiment is from the same set as the Cactus and has been popped up below the Hemstitch Circle, finishing with Blue/White Twine being wrapped around the card from and being secured through a button. Finished - there I told you it was quick!!
