On a Road Trip


Cheapo Dies

Cheapo Dies is offering a $15 gift certificate,
 which goes a long way.

The challenge at Die Cut Divas is to submit a project which uses silhouette(s). 
A silhouette is the image of a person, animal, object or scene represented as a solid shape of a single color, usually black, with its edges matching the outline of the subject

I recently purchased the inner arch and wanted to use it, coupling it with the Spellbinders' large arch and a motorcyclist from Silhouette.  Not until I took the photo did I connect the RIP (Rest In Peace) above the motorcyclist.

While this is not a Cheapo Die, Cheapo Dies has similar dies such as unbranded cutting dies - Gothic Window or a lady pane.  Cheapo Dies has many dies that would make perfect silhouettes.

Supplies:
Spellbinders Arched Windows One
Couture Creations - BE MERRY HIGH ARCHED WINDOW 
Sizzix Thinlits VACATION (Road Trip)
Silhouette Motorcyclist
Vagabond die cut machine
Silhouette die cut machine
Sheer Shimmer Spritz - Sparkle
