I must get better at keeping details on the stuff I buy! I just got this die but I threw out the packaging. Duh. This is for another Christmas time birthday, this one for a girl. I cut the die three times: white cs, Garden Green, Real Red.I used the dryer sheet technique to cut the green and red so I could keep the tiny pieces where they belonged. (The positive cuts are used inside the card.) Glued the white to the Kraft panel, then glued the individual reds and greens. Flower centers are dots of stickles Champagne.

What a beautiful border. Love all the flowers. I bet it's difficult putting all those little pieces back in. Even if I used a dryer sheet to hang onto them initially, I am sure they'd land on the floor as soon as i tried to pick them up, lost forever (even with the help of a broom), and I'd just give up. Great job!

You must be a very patient person because this looks time consuming to me. So cool that you used Christmas colors for this female birthday card. Love the sparkly gold centers and red & white twine!
