DRU Challenge #151 - Baby It's Hot Outside

Get ready for a new challenge!
Thanks to all you participated in our "Just Desserts" challenge. Please scroll down to see the Winner's post.

Our challenge today is:

Baby It's Hot Outside
(Hot colors - reds, oranges, yellows)

(remember, you MUST use at least 1 metal die to qualify for the prize... and please tell us the die company you have used in your project)

Dies R Us now has a sister store with warehouses in the USA and Canada called Didi Crafts.

It will ship to both the US and Canada. Didi Crafts will carry some of the same products as DRU, but most will be different. Now our Canadian friends don't have to worry about huge taxes or shipping fees. How great is that!?!

Our Designers have some fabulous inspiration for you today. Sit back, relax, and take a look.... (you can click on their name to go to their personal blogs and get more detailed information about each project).
