doing something a bit different....

 I managed at last to get hold of the Christmas bauble die set...yes its from China but Tonic are out of stock and will not say when or if it is coming back 



yes it was definitely fiddly to do but the first one is always a learning curve...its a really big bauble and will be great for Christmas filled with sweets...

Thanks for popping by today and I hope you are having fun crafting....
