Hello friends
Friday Die Day!
This week I am using Contemporary Circles, this is a two piece die set
and measures approximately:
Inset: 3¾ x 5”
Border: 4¼ x 5”
This set is a Spellbinders® Shapeabilities® Decorative Card Front die,
this means half of your card creating is done for you!
This is how it looks cut/embossed.

Rainbow time!
Onto a piece of white card I've attached strips of coloured card,
raided my scrap box again. Fix these down firmly.
I then used the border die to cut the rectangle.
Pretty colours!
I attached the rainbow rectangle to a white card front.
Attached 3D Foam Squares to the reverse of the Contemporary Circles card front
and fixed this down onto the rainbow base.
A strip of white card and then a stamped sentiment tag.
Back to Basics Tags...of course!
With the offcuts of my rainbow card I cut/embossed Blooms Four.
Tip: make sure every piece of your rainbow card is fixed to a backing card
otherwise you end up with tiny bits of petal everywhere...just sayin'!
The flower in place with Sprigs added.
A close up photo.
The card front dies really make things speedy and they look so effective.
Contemporary Circles is available on the website here.
Take care friends - I'm back tomorrow.
Have a wonderful weekend.

What a stunning card. I love the idea of making a rainbow background using offcuts - and the flowers die cut from the leftovers look fantastic!
Hi All
Thank you lovely card, take care Kitty.
Good morning Christine,
What an amazingly different idea to bring colour to your backgrounds and to use this multicoloured card to die cut flowers is just 'blooming genius ' Christine, I love the whole idea!
Thank you for another brilliant FDD!

Christine, what a cleaver way to use the offcuts which build up into a stash and then reluctantly go into the recycling bin. A definate one to try, thank you Ann
This is so pretty Christine. The rainbow background with the card front is gorgeous.

Hi Christine,
A great way to use scraps, I have a huge box of scraps but forget to look through it when making something new. Your card is very pretty.
