Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Outline Dies

Hi Everybody,

A couple of weeks ago I gave away the Rose outline die from Crafters Companion and that was quite a large die.

The card shown us also using an outline die though not the same one.

 This one us a really old die that I have from Spellbinders, but it gives the same result

It has been cut from white card and added to a handmade inky background

The sentiment is cut from silver mirror card and added with small portions of foam pad underneath to raise it up.

This is the same idea with the outline die on an inky background  but the centre is cut into an oval 

I have added silver dots cut from card around the edge and it is all added to a wall patterned die cut.

The sentiments have been stamped in black and clear embossed

The top card s a 5x7 and the middle ad bottom ones are an A6, but all have used parts of the outline die cut to their panels 

The result is very pretty and you could colour into the centre of the flowers if you wished and that would make them stand out even more.
This card has used a smaller panel to add the outline shape to and placed over to the left side of the card front, and again has used some handmade paper.

So there you have three very different looking cards from one outline die and some inky papers.

You could use any dies that are in your stash that give a similar outline look so look with fresh eyes at what you already have

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  2. Good Morning Christina and all that visit today. Please forgive me for not commenting over the weekend. I had a girly catch up weekend with my sister and nieces at a beautiful caravan site in Hornsea. The only let down was no internet.
    I love today's cards and I was looking for some easy cards for my line dance ladies birthdays. These just fit the bill. Thankyou Christina. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well 🙏.
    Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

  3. Hi Christina, yet more inspiration ~ how do you do it?!! I don’t think I’ve got many outline dies but I’ll look through what I’ve got and give this idea a try. The sun is trying to shine and the rain has stopped ~ hope it’s the same for you!
