Paintbox Poppets by Christine Haworth - die cut decoupage sheets

Paintbox Poppets are now in store at Foil Play! There are 10 different die cut decoupage sheets, featuring delightful designs of children by Christine Haworth.

These timeless images are beautifully detailed, the children have very expressive faces. The die cuts are very precise and detailed too. As with all die cut decoupage, no scissors are needed, all you need to do is pop out the pieces and layer them up with foam pads or silicone adhesive, to create eye catching toppers for your cards and craft projects.
