Songbird Challenge #31: Happy New Year


I have been a rubbish blogger recently, only posting DT cards, and a couple of them have been late!
 
I have also been an equally bad commenter. I do come visit your blogs but never seem to have the energy to do much more than that! I even realised the other day that I did not post any festive wishes to my much valued followers, so here goes:
 
Hope you all have a very happy 2014.
 
Talking of New Year, that's the theme for the new challenge over at Songbird Challenge.
Here my card:
 
I used a Spellbinder die that I cut out and embossed 6x then linked them together to form a panel for the top of my card. I then used a piece of embossed paper at the bottom of the card to which I added a sentiment that was cut on the silhouette. A ribbon was applied across the join, tucking this behind the black matt before being added to the card blank. A bow, flowers,leaves, beads and a butterfly was added for that finishing touch. I was quite pleased with the outcome.
 
Hop on over to the challenge blog for more super examples from the talented team.
