Mix It Up Challenge Blog - Challenge #84

 Here we are at the start of July, and it's time for another Mix It Up Challenge!  This time the challenge is to create a shaped card.  Here is my card for the challenge.

To create the shaped card, I made a top folding 4.25" x 5.5" card base.  I used an arch die to cut the folded card base, aligning the die so the top portion extended over the top of the fold so it wouldn't cut.  I then used two other sizes of the arch dies to create the layers.  The middle blue layer was dry embossed, while the floral image was stamped and colored on the top layer.  I just added some silver corn and a few sequins to finish off the card.  The stacked arch dies are from Scrapbook.com, the floral image is from Stampin' Bella, and the sentiment is from Hero Arts.

You can create shaped cards with dies like I did, or by using a Cricut or Silhouette cutting machine, or even hand cutting a shape.  We'd love to see what you create for this challenge.  Hope you can join us at Mix It Up Challenge blog!
