Ferrero Yumminess

Most of my swaps for the SU meet-up at Telford were made using my new Lattice Bigz die.  I've got quite a lot of plans for this die, but I overlooked it at first when browsing through the catalogue.  It's only when I saw a card made with it that it got my attention... I bet a lot of us have had this experience!

Come and have a look at what I made:


When you take up each corner of the lattice die, they fit perfectly around a Ferrero Rocher!  Do you think they planned that when they designed the die?  It looks likely...

Here's a close look at one made from silver glimmer paper:


I topped each Ferrero with my Petite Curly label punch (which I got free during Sale-a-bration but it is now available for purchase) plus a Bitty Butterfly, with three rhinestones down the middle.  The only tricky part of making these was gluing the darn things together... glue dots seemed to be the answer in the end, but it was a bit of a pain!

Supplies
Card: Wisteria Wonder, So Saffron, silver glimmer paper
Other: Lattice Bigz die, BigShot, rhinestones, Petite Curly Label punch, Bitty Butterfly punch

They seemed to go down well and I got some amazing swaps in return.  More on swaps tomorrow so stay tuned!  I'm in cleaning mode today as we have some friends coming for dinner so this picture seemed appropriate:


Have a good day!
