Print off the Christmouse Wishes digital image on to white card and choose one backing paper.

Layer one:
Using the largest square die from the nesting dies, cut a square from white card.
Fold the square in half, this will make the card base.
Using the second square die, cut a square from the backing paper and attach to the card base.

Cut a round the digital image using a circle die.
Then using a slightly larger circle die, cut a circle from red card.
Matt and layer together and attach to the card base on the left.

Layer three:
Using the cutting file USB, cut out a postbox using red, yellow, black and white card.
Attach the postbox to the card base on the right, slightly over lapping layer two.

Layer four:
Using a circle die, cut a circle from a sentiment topper.
Then using a slightly larger circle die, cut a circle from red card.
