Shoreline Treasures - Dies to Die for DT card

Good Morning my lovely crafty friends.

I hope you are well and having a good weekend.

My card today is made with some gorgeous goodies from Dies to Die for.

I have had fun making shadow box style card (there is a tutorial for these here) to feature some stunning Pion papers from the gorgeous Shoreline Treasures collection.

 The main image and sentiment were cut from the Bottom of the Sea sheet, and the beautiful butterflies from the Borders sheet. I have inked the edges of the papers and flowers with Weathered Wood Distress Ink which is the perfect colour match.

The aperture was cut using a circle die included in Die-Namics Blueprints 12,  I love how it cuts a line of stitching around the edge of the circle. The pretty corner swirl is by Die-namites and the flowers are made with a Cheery Lynn die called Sweet Christine
