Any Holiday with Diecut Divas

Its a brand new challenge and a brand new sponsor over at Diecut Divas. If you live in Australia and buy any of the craft magazines you would have seen the advertisements for Le Crystelle, well I can attest that their products and their customer service is awesome. Over at Diecut Divas we will be showcasing Le Crystelle all month with a theme of Any Holiday.  I decided to answer the call of Betty from Simply B Stamps and do a card for her upcoming Sons wedding, here is my make.




Card Tip:

With everything on this card base, I found it was too heavy to stand up - so I added some bakers twine, this way it will still fold up and gives enough tension to remain upright.

Papers: pattern paper from stash.
