Polkadoodles Gnome stamps in Die Cutting Essentials issue #58

The new edition of Die Cutting Essentials #58 is now out in all major retail shops and boy oh boy, did I have a tricky brief:

 use Polkadoodles Christmas dies, Polkadoodles Christmas Gnome stamps & make them for 

the men/boys in our lives 😦😧😲😳😵 

The magazine will be available in most retail shops but id you can't find it, check out Craft Stash who carry most crafty magazines.

MY PROJECT
I have used the adorable "25th December" gnome stamp set along with the wonderful Layering Trees dies - they are definitely not just for Christmas. My image has been coloured with Nuvo Creative markers.

The backing paper is from "Gnome for Christmas" paper pack and I have used a Polkadoodles Christmas stamp from a now retired set.

The layering trees have been cut twice: once green & another in glitter card. The green layer has been cut in half and placed behind the white layer. BINGO ... quick snow covered trees.
