Hello everyone and welcome to a new challenge at Dies R Us.
As you know by now, as from the beginning of 2021, all our challenges are "Anything Goes", but you have to use a die that is sold by Dies R Us. Easy peasy, right?
Challenge #162 ~ Anything Goes!
I have another Valentine's Day card to share with you today.
I had so much fun putting this scene together and I know the recipient is going to enjoy it :-)
For this slimline card, I used several different dies, inks and embellishments to create my scene. I began with an 9" x 4" card base. Next I cut the scalloped slimline mat and inked the sky with various shades of blue distress inks. I made all the cuts, inked and shaded them, and then arranged them to make it look like a couple of loving cats on a wall under a beautiful light post. I was going to put the Eiffel Tower in the background, but the one I have is just a tad small for this scene. Can you tell that I recently watched The Aristocats with my little granddaughter? :-)

I used a couple of dies that are only available during Special Order sales that happen every so often. The best way to know about these International dies sales is to subscribe to the newsletter. You will find the subscription box on the home page at Dies R Us.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope I was able to inspire you to create a project, and play along with us at the Dies R Us Challenges for your chance to win a gift certificate to the Dies R Us Store. A new challenge begins on the 1st and 15th of each month. Visit our challenge blog, where my team mates showcase their creations to give you a little more inspiration. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Pinterest too.
Before I go, I'd like to remind you that Dies R Us' sister store, Didi Crafts, is now open. It has warehouses located in the USA and Canada. It has some products that are the same as Dies R Us, but in addition, it carries international dies, and other crafty supplies for a variety of crafts. Go take a peek and be pleasantly surprised!
Till next time,
stay safe and healthy!
