This is my Audition for the 2016/2017 Couture Creations Design Team.
I have created a some projects to show how I have used some embossing folders and dies on cards, tags, off the page and a layout.

What an awesome opportunity it would be If I were selected to be apart of 
 The Couture Creations Design Team, with so many wonderful products already produced I cant wait to see what the next 12 months has to offer, and to be apart of a team of like minded crafters would be amazing.
