CCEE2209 Using die cuts

 Hi Crafty Friends,

It's Frances back this week with another challenge for you.

Die Cuts Only - create a card that is created using dies only, no stamps. If you must, you can use a stamp for the sentiment, but bonus points if you use dies.

Now let's take a look at our Design Team's creations.

Mod Squad Challenge Standing with Ukraine

This card was made for the Mod Squad challenge this week to use blue and yellow for their theme of Standing with Ukraine. This is a sunflower stamp from Spellbinder. I used scraps from my design paper scraps to make my background. I have decided that for the 40 days of Lent I will be making a card that will remind people to pray for Ukraine and all people of the world seeking freedom and justice for them and peace to live without fear.
