Exploring Die-Cuts for a Colorful Birthday Card

When I started this hobby, I was all about stamping and now look at today’s card - it’s 100% made from die-cuts and cardstock. I used a bunch of the same leaf die-cuts and grouped them underneath a simple circle mat, creating a cohesive and balanced design. I purposely didn’t pop out all the die-cut pieces to give the card some texture and visual interest. A small dot of liquid glue strategically placed on the card base ensures that the pieces stay securely in place.

It's fascinating to see how one's creative journey can shape our unique artistic style.
