I wish I had set my timer for making this diorama and it took me 4 TRIES . Yes 4 tries to get it right. One of the problems I was having is I don't have a slim enough die cut long enough and I don't have an exacto knife (I'm afraid of using them) so I cut this shorter than the example. Mine is 5" wide instead of 6 1/2". That way I could use a smaller die cut for my middle and not have such wide sides. Hope this makes sense! Anyway, I dug out more Halloween critters to make this card. I just can't seem to stop with the halloween cards. LOL I do like how it came out even though it took me well over an hour to complete this card!! Whew!! Now I need a nap! LOL

It makes perfect sense, I'm not sure I have dies that will work either and I so agree about craft knives....scare the crap out of me and I'm not straight enough. I think yours is darling, thanks for hanging in.

A cute collection of critters, and I think it's a good that lends itself to flexibility. I originally thought I'd make mine longer, but ended up trimming it down.

Super fun! Me and exactos do not get along so I understand the struggle. You did a fab job though, Sherri. Hugz
