Hello!! I noticed this week there are alot of challenges involving the word "New" for the New Year I guess, so I thought it would be fun to see how many I could do on this card! I used a new stamp that I've had for awhile and never used. It's by Inkadinkado. I cut out my image with the Label 4 nesties. I love the Label nesties but the sizes are so far apart for layering so for my brown layer I traced the die and cut it out by hand so that it would be a closer fit. To help hide my hand cutting I used my distressing tool on it and several of the other layers as well, to give it that worn look. I also sponged/distressed some brown ink on my DP layer as well. I wrapped some twine around it an added a button tied with some gingham ribbon. I added some pearls in the one corner to finish it off. I used a Quickutz folder on the bottom blue panel. I wish I had some of this same DP in Pink and Brown to make a little girl card but the pink version uses black instead and I'm not sure about a Pink & Black baby card??!! I'll add a link list to all the challenges. Thanks for stopping by and let me know what you think, I Love reading your comments!

I know what you mean about the nestie labels but I think you've done a brilliant job. I do wish they did the job for us though as I'm rubbish with scissors. Your card is lovely. I love the variety of bp's and the image used. Thank you for joining us at By the Cute and Girly.

I don't think this could be any cuter! I love the image and the pearls in the corner are a perfect touch. I think that it woule look great in pink and brown too and even if there is some black I am sure you could pull it off :D

Congratulations on making the Top 5 at Cupcake Challenges.
I did too and am all excited.
Thought I would share what I do with nesties. I often cut around the inside line which is meant to be embossed and get a nice close mat that way. I know exactly what you mean about them being too widely spaced. I quite often do the above when I am on the largest die and there is no other size to mat onto. I wish they would make bigger ones.
Ooops forgot to say, your card was gorgeous!
Fabulous card and well done on your top 5 placing at cupcake
from a fellow top 5 placement
