CD Sunday - Dies

Good morning, who stole my week? I can't believe it's Sunday again, mind you the upside is that there is another challenge over at CD Sunday for you to join in with.  This week it is my turn to choose a theme and I decided on dies, I have bought a few recently and I know how popular they are so thought I'd incorporate them into our challenge.

 I have been trying to persuade die in the wool stampers that cd's can be a useful tool so this week the element from the cd is the spotty backing paper, everything else is stamped and die cut. I have used a few dies in this card and just in case you are interested most of them are Spellbinders or Heartfelt Creations.

The spotty paper is from the Tom Meilko project cd/book that Joanna Sheen has put together and is on special offer at the moment @ only £6.99.  The little girl is a stamp that I have had for quite a while and can't remember where I got her from, sorry.
Now onto the dies, the curve at the bottom is a from Spellbinders set which is widely available but you can find them here.
The circle is from one of the Gold sets from Spellbinders, it is Gold circles one and is available from the same place but here is a link so you can see which set it is.

Finally the flowers and leaves are from Heartfelt Creations, the flower is stamped and cut from the Delicate Asters collection  I have put a link the a page where you can see the whole set.  The leaves are some that I use quite often and once again they were stamped and die cut, if you haven't found the Craft Clearance web site then you should go and look as they have some great bargains.  They have the stamps but not sure about the matching die.

Oh yes I almost forgot to mention that the little girl was coloured with Spectrum Noir pens and pencils, the pencils seem to be extremely popular at the moment and are out of stock in lots of places but you can usually find them on the Crafter's Companion web site.

I'm also entering this into the following challenges:
2 Sisters - Make your own embellishments (Final challenge)
CMC Copic Challenge - Anything Goes - Use your markers/ pencils
Paper Crafting Challenges - In Summer
Sweet Stampin - Say it with flowers

  3. Lovely card Jenny. I especially like the leaves. When dies first started to appear I must admit I was quite stubborn in my resistance. Why would I need these when I have parchment, stamping and stitching etc.? I have lost count now of how many I now have plus two cutting machines.
