Still playing.....


Hello....Have you ever brought a die and see how many design you can make with it? As you can see I have been playing with Tim Holtz Mixed Media Christmas die.....



This time I cut the white mat twice and used one as a template over the top of the other one and coloured in with my chalks and a brush....and layered it on red card....and stamped the sentiment....from Clearly Besotted in red....






                                                                                                                                           












The 2nd Card ...I cut the die twice and layered on Gold card and added some sequins....

Many thanks for you comments Joolsx
