Today’s handmade card has been created for the challenge at I Love Promarkers Challenge #584.

The theme for this challenge is Anything Goes with the option of ‘In The Pink’.

Cut one of the pink patterned papers to 16 cm x 16 cm.
Matt and layer together and attach to the card base.

Next select a slightly smaller nesting dies and cut out one of the patterned papers.

Then using the decorative thin nesting die, cut two patterned papers.
Matt and layer each pair together and attach to layer two.

Once coloured, carefully cut around the image, leaving a small white border.
Then, attach the image to your card using foam pads.

Using a sentiment die, cut the matt layer from dark pink card.
Then die cut the words in a lighter pink card.
Matt and layer together and attach to layer three.
