Layout - using dies and critters

Hello there,
Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

For me crafting is therapy. I don't have a plan for layouts or cards and I just go with the flow. I missed my niece a lot and when that happens I end up making a layout with her picture. While browing Instagram, I come across a lot of layout where die cut flowers are used and I thought maybe I could give it a try. When I saw DCAM release a bunch of layering dies, I thought maybe I should give it a try. 

Layering flowers - 1Layering flowers - 3Layering leaves - 2, Sparkle burst die with medallion and Stained glass border along with Magnolia delight all from Die cuts and more and I used an old single pattern paper that was a leftover and started layering all the die cut pieces. I didn't have perfect colour cardstock for the dies and hence I inked up all the die cuts and layered them. Finished the layout with some pearls and splattered black ink.

Stay happy and keep crafting.
