A new challenge is being shared today on the Impression Obsession Blog, and I hope you join the fun! The challenge is called Out of the Box! Pull out your creativity, and join us! You can interpret the challenge any way you'd like. For my card, I chose to use some die cuts differently than intended, and also did an "out of frame" design to create a spring garden scene.
I used the Window with Shutter die set to create the frame of the scene. Once I had the window die cut, I snipped out the window panes with scissors leaving me with just the outer frame. I created the carrots using the Tulips Set and Leafy Branch dies. I die cut the tulips from white card stock and colored the flower petals with various orange markers. I adhered the tulips upside down on the burlap layer, and added bits of the Leafy Branch die cut to to create the carrot tops.
Find all the details on how to enter the challenge on the Impression Obsession Blog. A random challenge entry will be selected to showcase on the IO blog and you can to enter to win a $25 gift certificate to IO just by playing!
Now, get ready for a wonderful dose of inspiration and check out what the other team members created for the challenge. Have fun!!

Adorable card. I made Easter eggs using the smallest oval Spellbinders die and added IO bunny trio. Fun to use dies other than intended.
