Greetings!
The adorable Counting Sheep stamp set and Sheep Dies in the Sale-a-bration catalog are so stinkin' cute! What a fantastic FREE bonus when shopping for all the fabulous items offered in the July-December Mini and Annual Catalogs. It doesn't take long to purchase enough items to get these sheep for free.
For this card I used the Picture This Dies from the Annual Catalog. It's a set of two dies, one with the rectangles as used in this card, and the other die features circle cutouts. The cool thing about these dies are that it's one large die with the rectangle or circle openings stationary in the die so you don't have to try and line them up. You also have the cut out pieces to use on the same card or save for another card. There is no waste!
So adorable!
The Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder adds the perfect texture to this adorable card.
