A Cut Above - APRIL: PASTELS....or not

A Cut Above 

Dear Ones~

It's a new month, and time for a new challenge over at  A Cut Above Challenge Blog
 
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. However this month there is an extra challenge, and that is to use PASTELS. Or just do anything goes, entirely up to you.

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 a $5 gift card to A Cherry On Top Online Store along with a dated badge to display on their craft site. 
 
Here's my card:







 I love using pastels, so this one was fun. I printed out a background panel from a digi paper I bought on Etsy. Sorry, I don't remember the artist. The focal is a die set by Altenew called Mini Flower Cluster. It's really fun to put together. The background panel has been embossed with th Spellbinder's Floral embossing folder.
 

 
 
 The Ingredients:
PTI Rustic Ivory Card Stock 
Etsy Patterned Paper
Sizzix Winter Wonderland Die Set for Circle
Spellbinders Floral Embossing Folder
Altenew Mini Flower Cluster Die Set
Honey Bee Mini Messages: Everyday Stamp for Greeting
 
 
 
 
 
 
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. And if you play along, you could win a $5 gift card to A Cherry On Top.
 
Until next time, dear reader, aspire to be inspired.
Here's celebrating your Creative Muse.
