I’m bringing you a fun card using the fabulous new Fanfare Scallop die, Stitched Mats: Circles, Stitched Mats: Rectangles and Stitched Sentiment Flag. I saw something on Pinterest the other day that made me think of the new border die as waves and an idea was born. Of course, I didn’t actually pin it, so trying to find it later was not happening! lol

For the bottom of the waves, I impressed the border die instead of die cutting it. I then alternated between a dark and light blue for dimension. The life saver was created with the Stitched Mats: Circles and embroidery floss. Uh, wait just a second, did you happen to see my teamie’s life saver card on Monday…can we say awesomesauce?!? Anywho, here’s a detail of this amazing die

All righty, that’s all I have for you today! Your next stop is Amy {don’t forget to vote for Gallery Idol!}. Have fun on the hop! Thanks so much for stopping by!
