Die-ing for a challenge?

oh I'm just sooo sharp !!

Hello blogworld

So I bet you didn't think you'd see me back again this quick did you!!  Reason for this post, and the reason I'm such a clever so and so, is that that it's a new challenge over at FlatFriends and this time the theme is 'Dies'.

So we would like to see, along with your Emma Canning (FlatFriend) digi, you getting your dies and die-cutting machines out and die-cutting to your hearts content.

So what did I make this time - well to begin with I had a hard time choosing the image, but in the end I picked this cutie and made this card:

Front shot:


Detail of image:

coloured with my Promarkers

Dies:

And, viola, the card you see above!

Hope you will be able to join in with us this month - we'd love to see more of your fabulous entries.

Cheerio
