Happy Little Stampers - April AG with Dies Challenge

Here is my inspiration for Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies Challenge

Do pop over and see the fabulous makes from the rest of the team!!

Today I have made a general greetings card...

When I was living in Abu Dhabi, I made many cards using these two dies!!

Recipe:

1. Kraft card blank.

2. layer of black card.

3. Layer of gelli plate pull.
5. Added palm tree - leaves cut from gelli plate pull, trunk from kraft. Added camel, cut from kraft with bow of pretty ribbon.

Hope you will join the challenge!!

While I am sharing die cut ideas, I thought I would share another....

I have mentioned a couple of times that I recently went on a crafty retreat 

with UK Stampers Network.

We all had a brilliant time and are looking forward to the next one in June...

Anyway on the second day we had two workshops - one using various techniques for 'toppers' and one making interactive cards.

In one of the interactive cards we concentrated on the surprise inside - this is how I finished the front - using silver card and a butterfly die. This made another anniversary card!

But on opening it becomes:

Happy Crafting!
