Allsorts Challenge ~ Winter Flowers/Fauna

Brenda has chosen the theme of Winter Flowers/Fauna for this week's Allsorts Challenge.  There is always the option of Anything Goes.

I had seen this Crafter's Companion 'Triple Stepper Card Die' used on a card some time ago, but couldn't justify spending the full cost to add one to my collection.  When I called in one of Crafter's Companion stores recently it was for sale at under half price, so it fell into my basket!  The patterned paper is from The Works.  I made the poinsettias with dies from Spellbinders 'Layered Poinsettia Etched' set and added tiny yellow pearls in the middle of each one.  The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Greatest Part of Christmas' set, stamped with Versafine 'Satin Red'.

  4. You were lucky to get that elaborate die at a reduced price wouldn't fancy trying that without a die. The card is lovely in traditional colours, just right for the challenge
