Cut it out

This card started out as an experiment. The flower die is from a Marianne Designs set Flowers and Leaves LR0156 that I hadn't used before. I also had a  very old die from Cuttlebug that I had never used that they don't even make any more! I combined the two and came up with this card.

I first laid out the three flowers to see how they would line up and what size I would need to make the aperture. I needed the aperture to be 5.25" x 1.75" on a 4" x 6" card.  If I did it again I would move the aperture up a bit but it is what it is at this point! LOL  I glued the three flowers together before gluing them in the aperture and then glued on the die. To finish the card off I scored lines above and below the aperture and used blue crystals in the center of the flowers and tiny ones for the dots over the i's.
