Embellishing Your Die Cuts - New Arrival Layout

Using larger die cuts and making them work...For this layout I wanted big, chunky cuts that really made a statement on the page without overpowering it.  I like how it turned out even though I mixed some unexpected colors and patterns (I wasn't so sure about the background paper with the polka dots).  I had some issues with this video and it turned into quite a chore which made me a little silly.  Hope you don't mind.  ; )
