Hi Everybody,
Today we are moving on to using square dies to create several beautiful cards. and the dies I am using are really old ones from Spellbinders that will no longer be available to buy.
I have used gold and silver mirror card to enhance the look and the flowers are mulberry flowers that I got from Wild Orchid Crafts many years ago
This pretty card has used the square dies as they are but in the video I show you how to increase or decrease the size to fit your designs.
I have used the same leaf and butterfly dies for all the cards, including the circle ones from last week.
You don't need to buy more you just need to use any leaf, flowers, heart or butterfly dies that you already have and make them work for you.
The sentiment is from my bit box and so are may of the other die cuts that I could find on my desk and they are left over from other projects.
This video is a little longer but it gives you eight ideas on how to create the look for your self.
I hope you will join me next time and see what we can do with Oval shapes.
Bye For Now ...
Hugs xx
Lovely cards Christina. You are doing very well using what you already have. I am trying to do the same due to your inspiration.

Morning. These are more your (and mine) style. I like them both but think the blue one is my favourite. Why would I never have thought to use squares in that way!!! They look so good. Janet Boyne
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Christina and all that visit this morning. Ohhhh what a great video this is today. What an array of beautiful cards made from just the one set of dies. I love every one of them. I love how they are all so different as well. All prepped and ready for embellishments. Great job done Christina. Thankyou.

Watched your YouTube video before work this morning. Great designs! Of all the dies I buy, I never think to get fancy frame edge dies. I need to pay more attention to them. Your cards are gorgeous.
