Now to the project!
The card I have made is all about re-purposing the dies and creating something completely different than that they were meant for.
I have used wine themed dies to make a card shaped like a hobbit house! When I saw the barrel die for the first time I thought it was looking like a hobbit door so I decided to stick to that idea to create the rest of the card and this is what I ended up with.
Please scroll down for some close ups and a VIDEO TUTORIAL!
Thank you so much for stopping by! The next stop on the hop is amazingly talented Svitlana Shayevich - keep hopping for more inspiration and more prizes!

You are a total genius. I can't even imagine how you come up with these ideas. You must lay awake in bed every night thinking of what to do next!
ReplyDeleteThe piece that you found on the floor could have been from a broken push pin
A really great re-purposing of those dies.
ReplyDeleteThe little door handle looks like a drawing pin with the metal spike broken off. :)
