This card is for the Ways to Use It Challenge. Check out the challenge Here and join in.
This is a fairly new die which I die cut first using a gelli print in blue out of my stash. I also die cut the negative (there's 2 dies in the set) and stuck this down realising that I had stuffed up LOL. When I tried to stick the negative Hello die cut in blue down, it was wonky so I ripped it off. Unfortunately in the process I left behind some glue spots. The moral of this story and especially to newbie card makers is that you can always rescue a card. Shame about the blue as it's really pretty underneath the pink.
That's when I die cut the sentiment again in pink and plonked on top of the blue...phew that was close. You could still see some glue spots on the pretty paper so I added some bling, stickles and finally a butterfly. All was not lost.
I hope that you join in the challenge.
TFL. Happy day

It doesn't look like a rescue job at all, Jayne. Those bigger dies, they stretch so easily after you've cut them that I sometimes have trouble getting an offset shadow right. The butterfly absolutely belongs with that DP.

The stacked diecuts for the sentiment look great despite the bobbles along the way. Pretty patterned paper, it adds a nice country kitchen feel to the card.
Love that two toned hello! Love the butterfly, too is so pretty, whatever it is punched out of is pretty. Your recovery efforts made a beauty of a card, Jayne.
