    Loving the string of lights..... I learned I don't have to use all of the diecut pieces.... I have a tendency once I cut them I thinkI have to utilize all the pieces together...waste not, want not!!!

    I thought using the 3D flowers to cover the bulbs on a string of lights was a great idea. I will have to try it!

    I think that the coffee filter technique is amazing, what a great idea to be more resourceful with what we already have at home.

    Your designers showcased this die to the max! I learned you can certainly cut more than paper! Gotta go to Hobby Lobby for fabric and felt....!

    Loved all the projects and hard to pen down a favorite. I learned that there is a lot I can do with fabrics. Loved the tulle that Jen used. The lace slipper Debra did is exquisite and I never would have thought of using lace for the flowers.

    I learned that you can use the dies on felt, I had heard about using them on stiffened fabric, but I have been using only paper, will have to try the felt and broaden my base.

    I also learned that you can use non-traditional materials, like coffee filtres, I help out at the school, and this would be a wonderful option for a class project.

    Thank you very much for the opportunity to learn to look at craft possibilities in a new light and for the opportunity to win this beautiful die!

    Blessings, Elizabeth

    Coffee filters are such fun and I loved the newspaper type print as an alternate layer. There are so many different types of printed paper that could be used in this design. Will be keeping my eye out for interesting prints.
