Cut It Out

I used a download from the Silhouette shop for this card and although it comes as a doily I ungrouped the shape to use it as an aperture card.  I cut the scalloped edge (which was the outside edge of the doily) separately to use around the edge of the aperture. 

The base card is linen cardstock, you may be able to see it clearer in this photo:

 I haven't added a sentiment yet until I've decided what event to use it for.  I think it might be suitable as a sympathy card so I'm going to enter it into this challenge:


as well as Chrissie and Mandi's challenge for this week which is called 'Cut It Out'

Enjoy the rest of your day.
