gingerbread house.......

 I bought this die so long ago...Paper Cuts festive collection from creative expressions....


I used Sue Wilsons square dies to make the frame and paper pieced all the house...lots of glitter and a sentiment from a set so old I have no idea who made it....

Joy and Light

 a new set of dies ...how naughty I have been so good using old one but I gave in when these came out....


sadly the set didn't include an outside die to make a base card so out with my trusty scan and cut....

any way I thoroughly enjoyed playing even though I had forgotten how to do a few things it soon came back.....

thanks for popping by today ...hot weather for us again
