Cut it out!

Happy Friday!!! Long week of games, but now we get to work on end of the year projects all weekend. Is anyone else ready for summer yet? hee hee   I am kidding! If you have time to play in your craft room this weekend, check out the Power and Spark challenge over on the Power Poppy Blog! This months challenge is hosted by myself and its called Cut It Out! Simply cut around those blooms for a beautiful extra touch. Can't wait to see all your delicate cutting! 


Time was not on my side this week for a new sample. However I have two for you today that give you an idea of what the challenge is all about. This one is using the beautiful Simply Camilla's. See how wonderful the blooms and leaves look all cut out? They are popped up on dimensionals for an added touch. 


My next card is using the Countryside Bouquet Deluxe. There are a lot more tiny leaves to cut around on this image, yet so fun. 



There really is nothing to it! So get to cutting those blooms out.
