Anyone for a Picnic?
Hello, Stampers!
We just had a small, mini-release, and I was inspired to make a picnic basket with our new fruit dies. I supplemented with some of earlier dies and punches to add a bottle of wine and some glasses, a "cheese", a loaf of bread, and some flowers.
S U P P L I E S
Memory Box dies (Mixed Fruit, Bountiful Basket, Dancing Tulips, Witch Kit, Petite Cake, Party Glasses, Asti Butterfly Wings) patterned paper and cardstock; Distress inks, (Ranger)
T I P S
Use your dies to represent something they aren't. I used the edge of a butterfly wing to be the loaf of French bread, the cake to make a container of something tasty, (it was originally supposed to be a cheese - lol), and the bottle from Witch Kit to act as a wine bottle.
Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!

Great card!

Deborah,
Very ingenious! That's thinking outside the "Memory Box." Love the card, love the colors, and love how it looks so real. Great, great, job.

Your card is fabulous! I LOVE the way you told us to think about using our dies for things other than what they are for...it solves so many probles. The bread, wine and cake look so good. TFS.
