I used the Alphabet A La Mode dies to die cut the ENJOY letter from scrap Boho Blue.

Boho Blue Blends were used to colour in the bird houses and 2 of the birds. The lemonade in the glasses and the remaining bird were coloured using Lemon Lolly Bends. The leaves in the plant pot were coloured with Lost Lagoon and I used a Pebbled Path Blend to add some shading to the plant pot and rocking chair.

I cut the two balustrade die cuts in half giving me 4 pieces. I then began to decorate each square with all the die cut pieces, some were glued on using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, others were added using Dimensionals. The word ENJOY was glued to the rectangle below the white trellis piece.

I added some Loose Daisy Embellishments to a couple of the panels. The panels were then adhered to the 8” by 8” panel of Boho Blue card. I trimmed down the mount using my Paper Trimmer and inserted the panel into the box frame and closed up the back/
