Technique – die cutting

Featuring die cutting

Made in May Card 11

Hello everyone!!

Today I’m playing along with the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

Although I’ve been trying to use new/unused products this month, today’s card doesn’t have any new products! The star of the show is my lovely Honeysuckle Plant die by Paper Rose Studio that I’ve had for a couple of years now. I love this versatile image and thought it would work well for my take on the sketch!

The woodgrain strip is Craft Consortium paper and the sentiment is by My Favorite Things.

Hello everyone!!

I was short on time today so chose a very quick CAS card using one element of the Spellbinders Patchwork embossing folder.

The flowery panel was slightly too short for my card base so I cut it and then adhered the Heffy Doodle sentiment die to hide the gap in the panel!

I added a few glittery butterflies from a Paper Rose Studio die set to complete my card.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!!

I picked up the fun Radial Butterflies embossing folder by Altenew in a sale recently and for today’s CAS card, I cut it from some Craft Consortium paper and then inlaid all the little butterflies into a white die cut background panel.

The sentiment is by Waffle Flower Crafts.

Hello everyone!!

I really enjoyed making today’s card – very CAS but with lots of die cut elements – so much fun!

The elongated oval die cut was embossed using the Spellbinders/Simon Hurley Plaster embossing folder which has such amazing texture! The stem dies are by Spellbinders and I completed by card with a little glittery bow by The Greetery.

Hello everyone!!

Last year, I rediscovered Pinkfresh Studio products when I attended one of their online cardmaking events and I’ve been growing my collection of their product suites ever since.

Their older products are quite difficult to get hold of in the UK and I know I missed out on a lot of beautiful releases. Happily I was able to get hold of the stunning Breezy Blossoms cling stamp/stencil/die suite. The red rubber stamps emboss beautifully and are a joy to colour!

For today’s card I used the individual images to create a little wreath which actually serves as a frame for the sentiment that is from a set I received for one of their events last year. So I decided I could enter this into the current Pinkfresh Studio monthly challenge which has ‘Frame it Up’ as a theme.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone!!

Today I’m finally using the fabulous buttercup die set by Simon Says Stamp that I just HAD to buy when I saw an amazing card created by the talented Cindy Norberg.

The wood slice is from a die cutting/embossing folder set by Stampin Up that I got some time ago but hadn’t used. The sentiment is from a set by The Greetery.
