Spring Forest Archway...
Hi everyone! Pam here... The NEW Archway Forest dies...so neat! When I first saw them, I knew, I had to have them for scenes! : ) Then I decided I had to make them up for Spring!
My next idea was to inlay the NEW Small Forest Archway die so I could stamp over the top of it! Awesome, right?! Don't you love it?! I do! You have to try it!
Photos just don't do it justice!
The stamp I used is the NEW Happiness stamp.
I die cut the NEW Grand Forest Archway die, popped it up by just putting mounting squares, that I cut in half on the tree trunks, top to bottom.
Die cut and shape the flowers from the Blooming Border die and glue them on here and there for the blooms on the trees.
Yes, it had to have a butterfly! I die cut and shaped with my fingers, the smallest butterfly from the Leavenworth Butterfly Trio die.
Thanks for stopping by the blog today! Thank you so much for your encouraging comments, they are always appreciated!

Do I spy the Flower Mound die, Pam?
Gorgeous card :)

Oopps.... That's not the Flower Mound! Didn't realise there was a new die like that. Is there any difference between the two, do you know?

Just can't get over how beautiful this is and all of the occasions it could be used for just by changing out the stamp. LOVE IT!

Oh my gosh Pam, this is gorgeous! I just pre-ordered the medium tree die (need to buy them a little at a time;) and can't wait to play with it. Soooo many possibilities. I'm thrilled that Dave came up with this collection! Thanks for the inspiration.
