The Gone Fishing die was used to make a shadow box for today’s all occasion card. It’s a perfect example of how to think outside the “tackle” box and open the door for possibilities. Not only do I love this die for today’s flowers, consider birthdays (candles, cupcakes, stars) and Christmas (holly, trees, Santa hat). You get the idea!
WHAT I LOVE! The Stampin’ Up! Paper Florist dies put you in charge of building beautiful blooms. Choose the colors, petals, leaves, stems and centers and assemble like a floral fashionista!
