The aliens have landed!

Hello lovely people,

I can't tell you how excited I am with the Dies to Die For DT card that I am sharing today; I am literally hopping with glee to show you because 'fun' doesn't even begin to cover it!

I LOVE an interactive card but would never have attempted a picture change card without something to help...like the cool magic picture changer die from Lawn Fawn!


And slide...


I really couldn't believe how easy the die set made it to figure out where to create my images and cut out all the pieces. You get the square frame and the pull tab pieces all included and I just added in the stitched rectangles.


I literally can't stop sliding the picture back and forth - lol!

Shall we go again?!

Yeah...

Snow globe tags...and not tags!

Hello lovely people,

If you're not into Christmas stuff just yet then look away now!

For my Dies to Die For DT project this week I have been playing with a super cute snow globe tag.


I inked a piece of card before using the die with holes in to make the inner piece, then cut the piece behind it from sparkly card.


I grabbed this cute little Santa who was left over from last year to add on top of my tag, added a sentiment, which is from the Santa stamp set, and a couple of sparkly stars to finish.


But of course you can use the snow globe on cards as well as for tags...


I cut off the hanging loop at the top because I wanted my snow globe to be free standing.

I've used a section from one of the 6x6 papers for the image in my snow globe...brilliant if you want a quick design without colouring :-)

A little monkeying around!

Hello lovely people,

I'm doing a revisit of some old stash for this week's Dies to Die For DT card.

I have quite a few of the Little Agenda sets from Mama Elephant (yes, totally addicted - lol!) and they fit just perfectly in the cute photo booth strip die from MFT.

 

I used a polaroid die to cut black squares with apertures just slightly smaller than the ones on the strip die so I could layer them behind for a black inner border to each aperture.

This layout would work for any of the teeny agenda stamps..I'm thinking a Christmas one next?!


The sentiment is from Uniko, and I adore these block sentiments. They aren't available to buy from the DtDF shop but they are usually available at shows...if you needed any encouragement to come and visit us at one of the shows - lol!
