Looking Back...

Hey Die Cut Crafters!

You also have the opportunity to share your own favorite creations by adding your projects using the link at the bottom of this post.  The link closes at 11:59 pm on January 5th.
 
Since the launch of this die cut challenge blog in July, there have been only guest designers along with mine as the owner of A Cut Above.  So, our projects are limited, but worth sharing, for sure. 

I've added the link to each month's blog post and
sharing a few of the projects here.
