Squares ?? What squares !!

Hi Everybody,

Today I am using the square dies again from the Perfect Panels ~ Squares set but this time we are making a long slim card commonly called a DL

These are easy enough to make for your self from A4 card stock, and have some left over for layers.

I like the shade of blue that this one is in and it goes really well with the white. It is called Marine Blue and it is from Papermill Direct

The video is not long, so no time to get bored, but I hope you enjoy it anyway.

I have lots more to come in the next few weeks so I hope you will keep visiting me often, and please leave me your comments as it is very encouraging for me when you do.

More tomorrow ...

Perfect Panels & Lovely Layers - Squares

Hi Everybody,

Today I am using the Squares from the new collection of Perfect Panels & Lovely Layers to create this card .

I love how the layers all fit neatly together without any worrying about them, they all fit really well and you can add as many or as few layers as you would like.

The video will try to explain how the dies work and I will be adding more cards and videos this week using the same set.

These new collections offer you so many ways in which to use them and your choices meant you can come up with a different design each time.

I really love them and I have thoroughly enjoyed playing with them and I hope you do too.

More tomorrow ...
