Challenge #62 Die Cuts

We are into the first week of November already, time flies by, it is my turn to host this weeks challenge.  I aka (Leanne)  thought we could used a switch with this challenge and use Die Cuts. Which means any form, punches, spellbinders, whimsy dies, my favorite thing dies, cricut, slice, etc. I chose to make a Christmas card, but you can make anything as long as we can see the die cuts on your project. Thanks for last weeks entrees always a great feeling when you come and join us here at 4 Crafty Chicks. So lets have some fun with Die Cuts.
