Time flies

 


It's time for our last challenge of 2024 at Allsorts and Sarah has chosen the theme of Use Your Dies. Or as always you can go with the anything goes option. This challenge will run for two weeks as will all our challenges going forward into 2025.

I love this fabulous JND die set and thought it was perfect for a friend who retired recently. I tried to make it look like Wedgewood, which back in the day was a popular retirement present as were clocks. I decided not to put a sentiment on the front in case she wanted to display it for longer. 

We have 3 prizes of Oakwood dies and coordinating stamps.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas.

You achieved the Wedgwood look beautifully Lynn, I am sure it was well received as a retirement card.

A brilliant idea for your friend's retirement card, have to agree with the rest of the comments, definitely a look of Wedgewood.

What a beautiful card/keepsake for retirement! Love the Wedgwood look (always admire the pieces they have in our Antique shop!) and I think it was a great idea to leave the sentiment off. It would look stunning inside a frame to display!
