Die-Namics Designs

The noon challenge (#2) by My Favorite Things for World Card Making Day was to use die-cuts only. I found this exceedingly difficult as I am not the biggest fan of purely die cut cards. Seemed kinda plain without any stamping, so I swapped out the cutting blade on my rotary cutter for a perforating on and added some embellishment to the edges. Topped it all off with some sequins for sparkle.

By far, the most arduous thing about this card was picking up the little dot to the "i" and holding it long enough to get it placed and glued right side up in the right spot. Oy!

ROYGBIV

The theme of the My Favorite Things World Card Making Day Challenge (#1) was to use color, rainbow colors specifically. Since World Elephant Day was not too long ago (August 12 to be exact, though I thought it was more recently than that truth be told), I chose an elephant as passenger in my hot air balloon.
