Oh my goodness, today turned out to be a mass of die cutting, but well worth it I think. I kept the card quite CAS because of all the work that was involved int he background panel (and I didn’t want to cover it). I filmed as I created so you could watch the process.
You can see my video here or Watch it at Youtube.

Wow…view this awesome card being made by Therese!
Your triangle background is so fun and I love the funky color combo! Perfect with this darling elephant, too! Really cute card, Therese!
All those tiny little pieces. You have the patience of a saint, Therese, but yes, it was worth it. The card is wonderful.
Amazing. I think I would opt for the lazy option of pattern paper! You are very patient and tolerant. Great result worth the effort.
Wonderfully jazzy card! Love the colour combo. It’s amazing what you come up with. 🙂
Can tell you’re a big PB fan:) This is a fab die and looks amazing in the two colours together.
This is unbelievable Therese.
Very very nice card, cute elephant. And that diamond die love it and how you used the two colours here. Really works well. Tell you what Therese one day we will have to meet up and have a swap and use day.between the two of use I reckon we own most everything lol.
Just so gorgeous in pink and orange, Therese! Your pink elephant couldn’t be cuter. Fantastic!

love how you used that die.. adorable card..
That is a serious background! Love how the elephant adds detail but lets it shine.
Well, this is certainly my type of card!! I always seem to be making fiddly die-cut cards of late. They are time consuming but so worth it!! Love the diamond dies you used and they look gorgeous with the orange and light pink. It wouldn’t work for this card but have you used the Press n Seal technique yet for large die-cuts? Its such amazing stuff and keeps everything in position.
Such a darling and pretty card Therese!
I love it!
Thank You!!
Love this card, colours etc. background is gorgeous, love the way you used the dies. Amazing,
Di B.
Wow! That needs a lot of patience and perfection, love it 🙂
oh my, LOVE the pink and orange and that adorable ellie. GORGEOUS background, you my dear are amazing.
That pink elephant is so sweet and I really like the texture of the diecutted background. It is really worth the efford!
You must be patient! But I understand – I think it looks great and well worth the effort.
