  3. using my BSC or a circle cutter I cut our two circles 1st = 7"x7", the 2nd = 6"x6"
  4. distress around the circle edges with scissors and ink around the edges with blue ink, I used stormy sky distress ink the 6"x6" circle I embossed too
  5. I cut out a die shape in blue card of a suitable size to fix my image too.
  6. I cut two more circles, one in blue card and one in white suitable for my sentiment.
  7. I assembled my card
  8. using the above listed copics I coloured my image.
  9. I then cut my image out on my BSC leaving a 3mm edge and the 'direct to cut' option.
