*****************
So, onto the new challenge here at Die Cut Dreams
and this time the challenge is:
SYMPATHY
(Not cards most of us would choose to make but let's face it we all need one at some point!)
*****************
Closing date 29 January 2012 : 12:00 Midday (GMT)
This weeks Prize
A MYSTERY PACK OF DIE CUT DREAMS DIE CUTS
(Kindly donated by the lovely Susie Sugar)

I decided to finally make use of a CDrom I bought ages ago - Me To You. The images are so cute and although this was not meant to be a sympathy image I think it works perfectly.


and here is a closeup


trying to show the layers in the decoupage. The only other thing I have added is some distress ink around the edges of the die cuts.

I look forward to seeing your creations.

Please check out my team mates for some more fabulous inspiration - their links are on my left sidebar.
