Encircled in Beauty

 Hello again

Have you ever missed an exciting product from the Stampin' Up! Catalogue?

Quite often when I share projects with friends they comment they didn't see it in there.

I haven't had the same amount of time to browse the current catalogues for some reason,

and I only discovered these pretty Encircled in Beauty dies when I studied a card by Gail Ellis.


After furthering investigations, I decided I need these in my craft room.
Firstly I made a z fold card..........again using my snippets mountain 
(it is getting smaller you'll be bored pleased to know )


Yep I even fussy cut the small branches :)
I stamped the sentiment one of the circles 


Next up I used one of the larger die cut circles

with more paper and snippets, plus twine and metallic gems.
I always encourage people to use their ribbons, gems etc to enhance their projects.
It's also an excuse to buy more!


Finally today, and embossed background (love the 3-D ones)
with another die cut circle and that gorgeous stag


There's loads of dies in the set, I haven't  played with them all yet.
All different sizes, they are sooooo useful.
The detail is amazing, but they're also easy to cut.


Take care
Lesley
