Play with Those New Toys.....with the CCEE


As the January hostess for the CCEE Stampers, I challenged the DT to make a creation with their new toys (stamps, tools, embellishments,designer paper, flowers, etc.). Well.....I made my card using three virgin dies I acquired recently.  I must say that the idea of this card is not original to me.  I have seen a number of creations on Pinterest using this same idea AND decided I wanted to try one myself.  The large die and the border die with the houses are from Memory Box.  The tree border die is from Impression Obsession.  I must say that this was a bit difficult to 'finish'.  I knew what I had to do, but the actual process ended up more complicated than I expected.  But.....I must say I like the results.  I now have a card for the 2013 holiday stash!!!

Now....be sure to journey on to the CCEE Stampers Blog to be 'enabled' as I am sure you will see some toys you will just have to have as your own....lol!!!

    Wow - what a gorgeous white on white card. I think I have one of those dies sitting in my basket already :D. I love the tree border die! I'm having to shim the only IO dies I've got yet, so I'm sitting on the fence about getting more of them.
    I actually had made a Christmas card with my other new stamps, but then I realised I needed to post my sister's birthday card yesterday so I made a second card with new stamps :D.
