Cut It Up 306 - Rare Bloom in Blue

 Welcome to Cut It Up Challenge 306! 

The theme for this challenge is "feeling blue". Use predominantly blue in your project. 

I die cut a postage frame and using a stencil, I inked each section in three shades of blue. Once the ink was dry, I stamped a variety of wildflowers in each section. I had to emboss them as black stamping on Distress Oxides doesn't stay black. Once the wildflowers were done, I removed the stencil and stamped a few postage images so the images would cross the die cut lines. I also embossed a sentiment on dark blue cardstock. I attached the sentiment and adhered the postage panel to dark blue cardstock. This card is flat with no added embellishments so it is perfect for mailing. 

Come and join us at Cut It Up and show us how you interpret this week's challenge. 

You have two weeks to link up your project.

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson
