Floating shaped card

Karen's themed challenge this week was shaped cards - huge intake of breath over here! Really stumped crafter, however I managed to purchase the April Edition of Craft Stamper today and inside was a lovely article by Joanne Wardle about floating fronts. I loved it so decided to have an experiment.. I have to say the article was great to follow and was inspirational so here is my first attempt. You may see a few more as I like muchly. So thanks Joanne.



As you can see I've used a Tilda and papers from the 'Sugar &Spice' range. I've kept it fairly simple as it was an experiment. The sentiment was a freebie and shapes were cut using a NS die cut set. Tilda is coloured with PMs and glamour dust.

I really enjoyed playing with this tonight. I hope you are having a pleasant evening too. Xxx
