Judy gave us a present for this week's Learn a New Technique Challenge. We got to pick ANY of the TLC challenges from 2012 for our card. Thanks Judy!!!
I was so happy to see this because when I first joined SCS one of the first challenges I wanted to try was TLC371. But I didn't have an embossing folder with a tight design. I coveted the SU! Square Lattice EF....and in December I finally got one! LOL
I cut the center circle with a SB die and glued the flowers to it. I ran it thru my Big Kick several times to be sure all the flowers were completely pressed down. I saved the negative of the die cut circle and used it for my center panel. Using dimensionals, I place the pressed circle back in place. I added the side panels and Cheery Lynn flourishes (there are two cut up) and lastly the larger layered flower with the brad center.
I think this will make a great thank you card for my MIL (the other Martha Stewart LOL)
Thanks again Judy!
