Sandy here with you today filling in for Amy. For today's card, I began with a French Lattice Large cut from Cryogen Metallic card stock. Using spray adhesive, I added a DP background and then mounted it on to my card base. In the January release, Cheery Lynn Designs came out with new Fancy Corner Cuts; four sets of three corner dies. You get two of each design per set for a total of six dies. For my card I am using Fancy Corner Cuts #2; the center die in the graphic below.
I wanted to see if I could make a fancy panel for use on my card rather than just fancy cutting my corners. I started with a piece of card stock 3.5 inches square and then cut the four corners. Here is the result...
I die cut flowers using my Shasta Daisy Strip die and my Daisy Strip die. I crimped the ends of the shasta daisies down and dry embossed the petals of the daisies upwards.
The last step was to add some gems to the lattice. A bright and happy card to celebrate the coming of Spring.
