WOYWW # 394 Winter

On the first day of winter my big shot gave to me a blizzard bwahahaha... Nope, we still only have snow that is in piles from when plows pushed it there a week ago... the rest melted a week ago.

Anyways the link up for playing in this desk peeking hop starts here at Miss Julia's blog.

 

 Now this ( on the paper trimmer) is a drum roll moment, I have had this IO die for years. every year I get it out and "try" to cut one... I have finally found the key.
This thin shimmery coated dcwv card. wax paper, a shim in the center ( and 30 passes through my big shot) and I got it out of the die... and I ended up with these 4 pieces... and its been so many years since I see someone somewhere use this die that made me want it...that I am not really sure what to do with it now, ( so it has been set aside) and in all honesty this die may be joining the I don't want to play with this again pile. I feel triumphant that I got it to work ( finally) but, its not worth the effort. my style tends to lean a little more to the chunky snow flakes.

I didn't really know how many dies I have, I don't count, ( I didn't this time either) but, I did pull them out and pile them up and just play. So, I have a nice little stash of snow going on for winter cards now. These are Tuesday night shots so, this morning the table is clear. I still have one more thing to wrap and I am good to go with packages being hand delivered this week. I wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas and thank you for the time you take to leave comments on my blog I totally enjoy reading them.
