Scotty Dog Card

I love this card, but wish the die was actually quite a bit bigger. The finished card is only slightly larger than A7 and looks a bit lost in a standard A6 envelope.
It was cut from Black mirri card and mounted onto a die cut card base.

For the card base, I folded white card and cut it with the die, making sure the folded edge was just inside the cutting area. Adding a ribbon bow and giant googly eye finished it off.

If you havnt already worked out which die I used, it was a Sizzix Bigz die, Scotty Dog with bone. I have lots of ideas for this die, so hopefully there will be more coming along soon!

Some bits through my Letterbox

A couple of weeks ago I must have been on a lucky streak and won a couple of prizes and this is what came through my letterbox:

First up was a Tag Challenge hosted by Helen over at A Crafty Kind of Truffle, in which I won the June Challenge and the fab prizes that fell through my letterbox were:

Secondly I was lucky and Won on the Banana Frog Blog Hop! I was lucky enough to choose any stamp set I like, and after much deliberation I went for Butterflies and Swirls.
