Hearts a Flutter Flags


Hip Hip Hooray it's Saturday! 

We woke up this morning to a snowy scene!  Started snowing late yesterday afternoon and our little corner of the world has turned white again. 

It was nice to sit and craft this morning all cosy inside.  Our challenge at Less is More this week is to use Kraft & Kreme.  My son is off to his friends for a birthday party so I challenged myself to make this work for a teenage card. 

As you can see I started off with a Crumb Cake base then made a panel of Crumb Cake, rounding two corners.  I stamped two Crumb Cake Flags from Hearts A Flutter once on Very Vanilla and a second time on Crumb Cake.  They were die cut using the matching Framelits. I then attached them to my panel.  I wrapped some Linen Thread around the panel and threaded it through a Ribbon Slide.  My sentiment is from Sassy Salutations and is stamped in Crumb Cake.  You can see the sentiment flag is bigger.  To do this I only rollered my framelit part way in my Big Shot then used my paper trimmer to finish it off. The panel was attached to the base using Dimensionals. 

I'm very pleased with the result.  Thanks to the ladies at Less is More for the inspiration and Many Happy returns on your 2nd birthday! 

Keep cosy and take care. x
