I'm a Cut it Up Designer

 I recently got an invitation to join the Ladies at

Cut It Up Challenge Blog

and as the name says - cut it up but using dies

with our die cutting machines

and don't we all have oodles to choose from.

I'm excited to start the New Year with New Challenges,

 meeting and working with New Friends along the way.

The first challenge theme at Cut It Up starts with

A New Year 

which brings endless possabilities - 

New Die, paper, tool, technique just a few.

Mention what your New is in your post.

PS My New are the Mushroom Dies.

After a rough week it was nice to find mo and jo to help me

create this fun card. 

I die cut my mushrooms and coloured them with

Tim's distress inks and Lindy's Magical's.

Background is stencilled and stamped with leaves.

The bottom I inked for grounding then decided to

add some extras - sissel and art stones.

Of course I had to add some splatters, ink the edges

and add a fussy cut sentiment I thought perfect as

mushrooms do grow wild and free...

Adhered to card base and my first card for

Cut it Up is complete.

Head over and see what the other New Designers

and Regulars chose to showcase our New Challenge.

Hope to see yours in our Gallery.

Thanks for visiting and your kind comments.
