Stretch Your Dies Day 4

Hello again ...

Day 4 of the online class is about using your small dies...
I went with a sample by Jennifer Rzasa which is using your mini dies to fill your background
I pulled out those pussy cat dies for this together with the littlest of the balloon dies


I decided that they looked better on a piece of DP ... This is one by American Crafts


One little tip I use when cutting certain images is that if you turn your paper or card over and cut again ... the direction of the image is reversed ... That way my cats don't all go in one direction


My nephew is coming to dinner tonight so I'd better get on ...

Thanks so much for all your lovely comments - I really appreciate it

Enjoy the rest of your day
