>>>AMANDA'S PROJECT<<<

Hello! It's Amanda here and I'm back today with a new project. This time I decided to challenge myself with patterned paper because I have tons of beautiful paper but somehow never find the right moment to use it. Does it happen to you too? :)



















I am absolutely in love with the new W&W cutaways. The moment I first saw them I knew I needed to make a shaker card with them. So here it is! I chose the beautiful "In a Word: Love cutaway" and built a sentiment with "The Big, the Bold and Extras" stamp set. 













As you probably know, the theme of the month is "Shades of spring", so I decided to use one of my favourites color combinations for this time of the year: pink, yellow and silver! To add the silver tones I heat embossed the sentiment with silver embossing powder and also added silver sequins, paper and thread. 



And that's all from me! It was such a great pleasure to be here with all of you. Thanks a lot for your support, your lovely comments and also big thanks to Shay and Julie for having me this month. 

Big hug!


Amanda
