Die Cuts & Punches is the theme for the new challenge at Cardmadfairy's Digi Days and I have made a 40th birthday card commissioned by a colleague for a friend who particularly enjoys cooking. I used a Cuttlekids die set to cut the numbers and then embossed them. I also punched a border on the purple paper and at the top of the recipe. I used my digi stamp All Dressed Up available here, and added a pinny and chef's hat which I stuck on with foam pads. Finally I added a length of bakers twine and tied on a little set of cutlery charms.
