Often enough, dies are given descriptive names, especially seasonal ones. If you squint sideways at some of them, they can be used otherwise. For example, the newish docrafts Build-A-Scene Vintage Hot Air Balloon, turned upside down, will be a good Christmas bauble later on this year (and the Marianne bauble dies I have would make good balloons). I have a snowflakey border die which looked far too dynamic for a gentle snowfall.
This was for a friend with a birthday near Fireworks Night.
I used the Memory Box Frostyville Border Die™ because I thought it looked like an exuberant firework display. I cut it from gold card, coloured the various flourishes and glued it to the front of a stepper card. I had some deep blue glitter card for a background and rough-cut a border of houses out of black card. The star/snowflake waste from the die was added to the sky.
