Inlaid Poppy Die

 


It's our 800th challenge this week at Allsorts challenge . So, it's a bit of a special week with a few extra prizes from AALL and Create and a simple theme of....

Anything Goes 

For my DT card I cut out of the central panel the poppy using an old Spellbinders die. Cut again in two colours and reinserted it into the space. With it reassembled I put it through my machine using an Anna Griffin EF. This way the inlaid die also gets embossed.

I then cut using the frame dies from Maximum Crafts. I cut again with green card for the matting. Sentiments are by Julie Hickey.  

Here are those super prizes up for grabs....
