Die cuts & Stickles = fun!
One thing I love about creating art tags (and one of the main reasons I make them) is the small surface because it allows me to use all those smaller things that may not make it into my art journal, like stickers or die cuts!
Die cuts are something I try to hold back on (like washi tape!) because they are SOOOO many pretty ones everywhere but… There is no use. My collection is just building up π
To justify buying them, let’s just use a few then shall we…?!

And if you want to learn mixed media with me, make sure to check out my online workshops and my No Shenanigans book/E-course, I’d love to share my knowledge with you π
With love and sunshine,
