Everybody Art GDT - dies

Hello everyone :o)

I'm here with my Guest DT card for Everybody Art Challenge, where our theme is 'dies'.  I thought I'd go all the way and use a die instead of an image for a change...


The cats are a Penny Black die, cut 3 times from black card and two scraps of patterned paper, and then pieced back together.  The fishtail banner, 'bow' and 'button' dies are all MFT die-namics.  The sentiment is a clear stamp from Digi Stamp Boutique HERE, Doodlebug enamel dots and the green baker's twine from my stash.

I'm entering my card for the following challenges
Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies
Dragonfly Journeys - baker's twine (just a little bit!)
Simply Create Too - use die cuts
Simon Says Wednesday - happy birthday

Thanks for popping in, hope you have a lovely evening :o)

Hi Lisa! My goodness I absolutely LOVE this and it's great for when you don't have time to color! Your layout with that die cut is just perfect. The little bow with the button, and all of the pretty colors work together amazingly. This die cut is on my wish list for sure! Thanks so much for joining my Baker's Twine blog challenge and good luck :)

Oh wow !!! You have made this so nice.
The black cats are strongly against the soft colors of the background.
