Stencils or Dies?

 Hello friends. How are you all? Well I hope. A sore throat here at the moment but my regular testing for work shows negative for Covid so that's okay with me!!

This time we are asking you to share your favourite between stencils and dies at

As You Like It Challenge

It's dies, all the way, for me and while rifling through my stash was surprised how many I have accumulated over the years. I remember the excitement of managing to get hold of my first MFT Fish tail banner die set and using them with my little pink limited edition cuttlebug!! 

So this is what I did, using a favourite set and a freebie...



probably my favourite die set for Christmas as it makes such a beautiful shaped card too and the snowflake detail is glorious. A magazine freebie fit perfectly in the centre. I used two shades of blue card for this, one pearl and one mirri. The sky looked a little flat so I added some stardust stickles.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with and I am fairly confident it could be neck and neck this time as as stencils and inks seem to be more popular currently.

See you soon xx

  11. Wow this is a knockout, Sarah, but I think it's very cruel to ask to decide between stencils and dies! 😏😊

  12. Just saw your name on another blog and figured I'd probably missed a post or two, like lots of us my reading list is not allowing me to scroll back. Pretty card - stencils for me probably.
