Hi Everybody,
Whenever I make a card some nesting dies are something that I invariably reach for.
They will create beautiful layers for your designs whatever the shape you wish to make.
This card has used the rounded corners and it just gives a different finish to a 5x7 card.
There are many different sizes to a nesting set and so the size of the card can also be varied to suit what you have in mind.
In the Card Making Magic Collections there are sizes ranging from A6 to A5 and all the different ones in between.
There are lots of different shapes for you to try as well. Circles, Squares, Octagons, Torn edges as well as the rounded corners shown in the first card.
This card has just used ovals in the increasing sizes, in rainbow colours layered together, to get the look.
They can create frames for you and you can vary the thickness of the frame by adding different dies to make them.
Once you have the frame you can line with it acetate to create a shaker card. Or you could add this shape to another sized shape for the top of the creation.
So if you are starting out with card making then I would suggest a good set of Nesting Dies are essential to your collection.
With these your design possibilities are numerous and you can have fun at the same time.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
