For You
February 27, 2022Hi there! Today I’m sharing a colorful, geometric project featuring the Geometric Builder Circles die set. These Geometric Builder dies never, ever stop bringing me joy.
I die cut several solid circles and adhered half & quarter circles over top using lighter shades of cardstock to create a unique visual appearance of a square in the center.
For the sentiment I used the All About You stamp & die set.
My inspiration came from this gorgeous quilt. I find so much inspiration from quilting. I wish I could quilt like this.
