Lorraine has chosen the theme of 'Circles' for this week's Allsort Challenge. For my DT card, I've used lots of circles cut in half.
The patterned papers are from The Works. The thin strip of card across the middle is raised up on foam pads and tiny pearls added across for added interest. The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Humming Along' set, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Warm Breeze'.
Prizes are from Highlight Crafts, AALL and Create and Stampendous.
I am joining in the following challenges with this card:
Making this style of card leaves two lots of semi-circles left over, so I made a second card.
I do like this style of card and you've chosen some lovely colours - great that you can get two cards from your original cut circles.
ReplyDeleteSuch an effective use of circle dies Liz and a pleasing colour palette as well.

These semi circles with the strip across the middle are a great way of using these pretty papers Liz and the added pearls and sentiment on each finish the cards perfectly. x
