I had fun with color! I use quite a bit of black card stock, all year around. Black POPS all colors! These butterflies are cut with the Brilliant Wings Dies #155523. I applied Adhesive Sheets #152334 to the back of the black card stock before die cutting. This creates a "sticker," so application is quick and clean!! The backgrounds are Subtles 6 X 6" Designer Series Paper #159255. These paper packs are SO HANDY and great for envelopes flaps, too!!

This is a fancy fold. The base is 4-1/4 X 5-1/2". The center is simply a narrow card, cut 8-1/2 X 3", scored at 4-1/4" and mounted on the center of the base. Simple. Try it!

HELLO crafty friends! Alphabet A La Mode #160750 is extremely versatile!! I love that this design is narrow and TALL!! That means more letters fit on a card front!! Yea!!

Handy Tip! To line up your letters, use any straight edge. Here I used a post-it note to create a straight line.  Keep letters close together when creating a word. I like to use a pair of tweezers to hold the letters and position them. I ALWAYS use Adhesive Sheet #152334 on thin dies! Apply the Adhesive sheet to the back of the card stock BEFORE die cutting. This creates an easy to apply sticker!

This lovely black frame is Framed Florets Dies #160623. I also used the Adhesive Sheets when die cutting this frame. The bias plaid is the Country Gingham 6X6" Designer Series Paper #160388 in Mint Macaron.
