There are SO MANY fun ways to use this Sunburst Thin Cut!

Let's take a look at the card I created, and then we'll talk about the details of this card.

I ADORE the color palette of our current "You Are Enough" collection at CTMH, and that is where the color combo inspiration came from for this card.

I started by cutting the Sunburst Die in Blue Belle cardstock (CS), and then followed by cutting, Glacier CS, Peach CS & Dreamy Holographic paper.

I was inspired by fellow CTMH Consultant, Laura Beacham, to use a rectangle stitched frame thin cut in the middle of this card. This was the perfect place to stamp a sentiment & add some fun!

Did you notice the "Shiny Item" I used on this card? I used our lovely Holographic Papers :) :)
We have FIVE different shades of Holographics to choose from, & I used the Dreamy shade on this card. ALSO---exclusively available in our "You Are Enough" collection---are the adhesive-backed Holographic Butterflies! So pretty!

And of COURSE, you can't forget our lovely Glitter paper too!! I used our Sapphire Glitter paper to cut out this pretty butterfly. The stamped image behind the butterfly came from the You Are Enough stamp set. I'm using that shape, more and more!! It seems to fit into almost any creation ---page or card!

You may have noticed the Embossing design on the Peach Cardstock too. This is the PERFECT way to add some texture in a way that doesn't draw away from the design of the card! I used our Cascading Dots 5x7 Embossing Folder. Isn't is SO NEAT how that subtle design, adds the perfect extra touch?

I hope you enjoyed this card & were INSPIRED today!!
