Edwin & My New Dies

Here's a card i made with my new Do Crafts Cog dies which i won at I Love Promarkers Challenge, Thank you Ginny & Lizzie.

The image is a combination of stamps, i used the body of  Magnolia' 'Handy Tilda' and the head of  'Happy Edwin'. I coloured with my Promarkers.

Silver mirror card, Bo Bunny paper, twine.

I even used some of the waste bits from the dies, i think they look like rivets.
