Use a die cut!


Our new challenge theme at
has been chosen by the lovely Valerie who wants us to
use die cuts.

This was definitely a challenge for me
as I rarely use blank die cuts.
I had a hoke in my stash and found the bird cage
and bird from a really old kit.
The birdcage has been covered in metallic rub ons,
the bird has been coloured up using inks and brushes
then I attempted to add some detail with a marker, but what a mess!
The background of my tag has been stamped using
Whitewash Texture stamp from Lisa Horton.
The sentiments are also from a LH set called
Cracked Bark Texture.
I inked over the stamped area with my brush then
assembled as above. and finished with some bakers twine.

Pretty pleased with the finished look for a first timer lol.
Hope you can come and join us.

I would like to enter this into

I am absolutely dosed at the minute.
Sore throat, hoarse voice, sneezing and generally unwell.
Seriously it's June!

Your die cuts look gorgeous Pinky- a lovely tag.
Sorry you're feeling rough- always seems so unfair to get a cold in the summer! Hope you soon feel better.
