A Cut Above - July

 Dear Ones~

 

Happy ANNIVERSARY/BIRTHDAY to us!!! Can you believe it's been 2 years since the birth of A Cut Above? 

 

Challenges are on a monthly basis and posted on the first Monday of the month at 12:00 AM (Eastern Time) and ending on the 28th of each month 8:00 PM (Eastern Time) with the winner posted on the 30th of that month. The theme is always anything goes with a die cut

Limit of 3 entries per challenge with each being a different project.

Any project is welcome but MUST HAVE AT LEAST ONE DIE CUT defined by using a die cut machine, not a purchased pre-fabricated die cut. Winner is chosen by random draw, and will receive one of the 4 prizes listed below, with a dated badge to display on their craft site.

 

Here' my card for this month:

One of my favorite looks is the background here. I stamp a scripty background stamp in Versafine on patterned paper and heat emboss it with gold embossing powder. I think it really packs a punch. Then I used some real wood vernier to design the square pattern.

 

  The Ingredients: 

GKD Gold and Eggplant Card Stock

GKD Elegant Script Background Stamp

Elizabeth Craft Designed Metal Series Patterned Paper

GKD Happy Birthday Die Set

Tim Holtz Metallic Card Stock

Wood Vernier from Amazon

Trinity Stamps Mat Gold Baubles

 

 

 

 

 There's some great prizes up for grabs this month to celebrate our 2nd anniversary/birthday. There will be 2 separate $5 gift cards from A Cherry On Top, as well as the 2 wonderful prizes below. That's 4 separate prizes, and if you play along you could win one of them.

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you will jump in and MAKE THE CUT, I can't wait to see what you come up with. Head on over to the A CUT ABOVE BLOG to see what it's all about.
