Welcome to my blog and I know it has been a while, I have been working on some new things and been a busy person. I have a surprise for you and I want to tell you that I'm on Scrapy Land design team and this is our First challenge we would love to have you join us at SCRAPY LAND BLOG. So I will be sharing with you a lot more things and all kinds of new things to make with die cuts. Challenge #1 is all about using die cuts on your card so your card or project can be anything goes using die cuts. The challenges are bi-monthly so it starts September 3 at 6am and ends September 14 at 8pm. You have a chance to win a gift certificate for $15.00 from Scrapy Land Store.
These are the die cuts I used on my card. Memory Box die cuts Country House, Arboscello Tree and Wrought iron fence. Impression Obsession die 066-C, Poppy Stamp Wild Flowers Patch.

My background paper is from my scraps. I also used some copic markers to give the house a little color. R29, RV02, YG95 and B12. I did some torn papers in a couple shades of green and used Martha Steward fringe scissors and the top of the torn papers. So if you can join us at Scrapy Land challenge #1, we would love to see what you come up with. Thanks so much for stopping at my blog and have a super day. My grandkids went back to school yesterday so that must make a lot of people happy. Have a wonderful week.
