Mother's Day Card

I finally jumped on the metal die cut band wagon.  I have been scrapping and card making for years and use my cutting machine all the time.  However, metal dies are something that I have never gotten into...I can cut almost anything I need on my machine and a die is limited to only one size so I never felt a need.  Well, I found a group online that uses unbranded dies.  One thing that I love about dies is the intricacy that they have that just isn't the same when cut on my machine.  So finding a bunch of cheaper dies, I thought it would be fun to have a few flourishes, frames, and flowers that I could cut quickly for projects while my machine is cutting other items.   This is my very first die cut card.  I think it turned out nice.   With that being said though, 2 of the 8 dies that were unbranded did not cut but the ones that did, cut so nicely!  Still waiting to see if the company will do anything about the ones that don't cut or not so we shall see if it is really worth it or not.  Of course the 2 most expensive ones were the 2 that didn't cut.  Hmmmm.... anyone else had that issue?
