More Playing With Scan-ncut

While my Scan-n-cut was out the other day (I have to put it away after using it as we look after my 20 month old grandson two days a week) I went through the designs and cut most of them out. Mostly in black as I was just enjoying playing and trying out the cutting files. I love the square shaped designs on the Lavinia USB, I can cut them so that they fit onto a 4x4 card or I can pop them onto a larger *x8 card like this one and decorate the edges. With this design I created a little scene behind the cut out using Lavinia stamps. After layering it up with the scene I added glitter with dries clear glue and iridescent glitter. Then matted with black a gold card stock. On the USB there is a lovely corner cut out that is just foliage, so I cut this out in a dark green and placed in the corner before adding some more leaves that were cut from a Tattered Lace die and flowers also from Tattered Lace, I coloured the flowers to match the colours within the scene. Finally I added the sentiment which I made on the PC. The card is for my sister who's birthday is in April (good job she doesn't look at my blog).



Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.
