life is sweeter

Teri Anderson spotted this fabulous image on Pinterest the other day and I don't know if I still had pie charts on my mind but I was really taken with the colours and shapes.

Here's my very literal take.




I would've liked to have the fruit slices smaller so I could have more of them on a card front but the little segments were fiddly enough at this size and I didn't want to make it more so! FYI if you try and do this yourself, put some tape adhesive onto the smallest circle before cutting it into segments - it is much easier to add adhesive to the whole circle than the tiny pieces when cut up :)

This card fits with day 4 (plainly white) and bonus day 1 (die cutting) of Clean & Simple Card Making 2 :)


Supplies: Stamps - Hero Arts friends cl351; Ink - Versafine smoky gray; Card - Stampin' Up pink pirouette, daffodil delight, Papertrey Ink berry sorbet; Dies - Spellbinders circles small & large; Stampin' Up adhesive rhinestones; Ranger star dust stickles
