Do you ever wonder how to use delicate and fine detail dies? Do you have trouble cutting them out? Try some of the Spellbinders Glitter paper. I cuts like ‘butter” (as Laura Bassen might say).
This first one is cut with pink and green glitter paper Spellbinders Timeless Duo. TIP: use low tack tape to hold your die in place and cut it with the cutting edge upward. With this tip and the great glitter paper everything comes out spectacularly.
The background is embossed with Spellbinders background Embossing folder of the month – partially embossing the top and the bottom, leaving a flat space at the center; Lightly ink blended over to show the texture. The whole card base was cut out with the Scallop Labels and Tag Etched Dies from the Sealed 3D Botanical Collection and a thin frame was created with two of the labels in this set. The cute little flowers were from Spellbinders Small die of the month Feb 2024. The sentiment is from Smooth Lines Mix & Match Sentiments Etched Dies from the Be Bold Collection cut from Tim Holtz Silver paper.
This second card is a gate fold card first ink blended with Blue Horizon and Teal Tempest Altenew Inks. To make the gatefold:
- simply start with a 10”x7” piece of white cardstock.
- Score 2.5” from each side on the long ends and fold inward
The silver die cuts come from Tim Holtz silver paper as well as Spellbinders Timeless 5X7 Cardfront dies.
I made a mistake in cutting my card base so my measurements we slightly off – so the two “gates” didn’t meet as they should have. To compensate for this, I added a strip of paper along the edge of the left side, matching it with the paper behind the center Oval of the Timeless 5X7 cardfront dies.
The sentiment is from Always You Timeless Sentiments Press Plates from the Timeless Collection, glimmered with silver foil.
This is such a pretty collection of fine dies. They really make a Timeless classy display. I’d love to see what you would do with these dies. Please tag me on Facebook or IG if you create with these.
Thanks for visiting. Hope to see you again soon!
Hugs, Penny
