Cut it Out!

Hi there!  Welcome to addINKtive designs. Today I am sharing a card that I made using the soon to be released, Thoughtful Branches Bundle.

TGIF Challenges #65 is all about cutting!  Fussy cutting or die cutting, they don't care, they just want to see you - Cut. It. Out.

Well I can testify that this little creation required a lot of cutting with dies, paper snips, a punch and a paper cutter!  It took me a few hours to make in between doing a few loads of weekend laundry!  You have to have some incentive to get the housework done, right?
