Poppy Power has a new challenge "Stretch Yourself" which is to make a tall card. This was a real challenge for a gal whose cards are 99% square. This is a double challenge to try a new technique using a new product. I may have "stretched" a little on this part. My new product is the border die. I saw Leslie Miller turn one at an angle on a card and I borrowed the idea.
One of the benefits of having a Silhouette machine is I can dismantle a sentiment and arrange everything on the card then print it. For this card I only used the Silhouette to design and print.
I used my Prisma pencils and odorless mineral spirits to color the pretty bouquet.
