VERY cute card - love all of the tips and tricks and I like the ideas you offered on how to use the die cuts with "out of the box" ideas!

Thanks for sharing the great card! I love Taylored Expressions and have a couple of her stamps.

I love the card. I too am looking for more techniques that use die cuts, but even more so using dies cuts in more than one way. Versatility..that is my thing. Money is tight these days so I like to find new ways to use my supplies.

What a wonderful adaptation of a window card. It is so cute and colorful and dynamic. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the honor of being in Ellen's Classroom.

Wanda - I am new to your blog, but I will certainly be back! I love your card....it looks like Spring, which we all need after the winter we had. I am finding many die cuts and love what they can do. I have a Vagabond, which I recently broke. Lucky for me, my husband was able to fix it. But, I feel like I don't have enough information on how to use all these dies. I would like to know exactly which pads to use with various dies.
I look forward to visiting again!!

I made a card somewhat like this awhile back. It turned out great. Love your card too. I don't have any specific requests for tutorials. I just enjoy going around the different blogs and seeing the cards featured. I may copy something but then I add my own touches or modifications. thanks for the offer of the prize.
