The Poinsettia Dies have a small flower die that’s often overlooked in favor of the larger Poinsettia flower dies. I punched out a couple just for fun and immediately thought about Poinsettia Tree decorations that I’ve seen at shopping malls and conference centers. The die set actually has two…
This little gnome is easily transformed into a Halloween Wizard by snipping off the jingle bell on his hat and adding some starry designer paper to it instead! He fits in perfectly with the Halloween scene. This card is a little labor intensive, but don’t let that scare you…
