Fusion #3





I was not going to make anything today, but when I saw this morning's Fusion #3 challenge and I looked at the new MFT Staggered Heart Border die that arrived last night, I just knew I needed to play around a little.  I was inspired by both the sketch and the photo.

I stacked three die cuts out of Pure Poppy to add some depth, since I didn't think I could get foam tape on some of the thinner pieces.



Playing around and turned the sketch 180 degrees.  Changed where I put the sentiment and also used the Book Print Impression Plate.



And, one more card--I thought those hearts would work for a baby card, using Spring Rain and the Stars Impression Plate.





We are having a super gloomy day in "sunny" San Diego, and the colors and lighting are all off on my photos.  Sorry about that.

That's it for me today.  Please come back tomorrow to see my January 12 Kits of Occasions post, where Sharron is our hostess and our theme is LOVE.


Thanks for Visiting
