This week's challenge at Totally Stampalicious is to make a Clean and Simple Card. I thought this would be the perfect time to break out my swivel knife and cut out my image. When I told my husband about this plan he said make sure you have the bandages ready....NICE. Anyway I'm happy to report that I was able to cut JJ out without cutting myself. I've seen so many awesome cards with images cut out and I've been wanting to try this for a while now. In the end I'm very happy with how this turned out. It took less time than my adventures with the sewing machine too.
Mark your calendars - we're having a New Release and Blog Hop at Totally Stampalicious on Thursday - April 21st!
Stop on over to the Totally Stampalicious Blog to see more great Clean and Simple inspiration from the design team! I hope you get a chance to play along with us this week!

Oh, this is amazing, Julie! I love your layered cards but you can totally nail CAS, too. I love that you put the image on a red nestie and a kraft card base! That is too funny what your husband said but I sure hope you didn't cut yourself. ;)
Wow, you totally rocked this challenge this week, Julie! I have difficulty with CAS ones but yours rocks :) WTG!
A swivel knife?? Oh, what a great job. I've tried to use my craft knife a few times with NO success. Sure wish I could master that. That is a wonderful CAS card and fun birthday card.
Funny what your hubby said..glad you made it through unscathed. LOL
