And now, let's move to mu first project, that features some of the newest products.

I really like the newest Slimline Stitched Circle Trio, I think it is a must have for those like me who love slimlines. You can easily create three holes, three spots for three scenes. Here I wanted to cut the two holes at the side but I didn't want to cut the central one, as I planned to put the giant Hey. I firstly die cut the slimline panel from a piece of Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and then I did some partial die-cutting, starting from one side and then moving to the other. I then cut a piece of 3,5"x8,5" Neenah Solar White cardstock and I ink blended the area behind the kraft panel using Distress Oxides in Broken China and Cracked Pistachio. I also splattered some acrylic paint to add interest to the blending.

I then die cut the In-Focus Florals die-namics from some white cardstock and some vellum. With dies like those, I really suggest you to use a metal adapter plate, to easily cut all the smallest details. I layered the vellum and the white ones in the two holes and I started working on the sentiment. I firslt cut the Hey script twice, one in white and one with Tropical Teal prestige cardstock and I used glue tube to add them to my panel. At the end I stamped and die cut the long sentiment from Friends Like you. I really hope you will like the result!
