At the Shepton Mallet craft show I went to last week I picked up a set of dies called 'Garden Tools' which I thought I could make use of...
I made a little shed using the Stampin Up Hardwood die...and cut some of the dies.. there is also a spade and another hand tool in the set....
Backing paper from my stash....as we all know mens cards are so difficult to make at times but I was pleased how this one turned out...
