Some new toys!

Hello Stampers!

So did and of you watch the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics last night?  I could not believe that Bermuda had on Bermuda shorts.  I bet they were freezing!  There were definitely some interesting moments.

I got some new toys the other day that I wanted to play with.  Karen Burniston has designed some new accordion dies and Lots of Pops dies.  I picked  up a few ad I love playing with new toys.  My card today used one of the accordion dies I got – the oval one.

I saw a technique at Elvie Studio I wanted to try.  It looked like a lot of fun so I created a sheet using her technique.  I then used the sheet to make the background for the ovals.  This is a fun and easy technique if you want to try it.  Here is my creation.

the inside of the card opened up

This card does not open all the way.  The 2 oval panels open up fairly flat and that is as wide as the card opens.  

I have some more new toys that I will share with you in upcoming posts.  Thanks for visiting me today.  I hope you liked my new toy creation.  Have a Super Saturday!
