This month's die cutting class features the Making Memories Slice.
I know I said this before when I shared the sneaks but I think the following projects are my favorites so far this year. Very colorful, springy and fun.
All the die cuts except for those tiny, tiny butterflies were created with the Slice + different design cards. So easy and fun.
The photo actions I used on the picture of my daughter are from Pioneer Woman. Specifically the action, Lovely & Etherreal, for the dreamy, soft look on this photo.

The topiary is just the right decoration for Spring and Easter. And I promise it was easy peasy to make!
In addition to the die cut flowers, I purchased a styrofoam ball, two styrofoam discs (to fit inside the ceramic pot) and a dowel stick.
The two discs were placed in the pot and I simply pushed the dowel rod in all the way, then I pushed the round styrofoam ball down on the other end. I secured it with a little hot glue. I tied a yellow grosgrain ribbon around the rod and shredded some scrap paper in our paper shredder to create "custom matching grass".
