Hello there my stamping friends! Today I am sharing two new die sets from the Spellbinders shop, the Picot Petite Circle and Squares. They are part of the Amazing Paper Grace collection by Becca Feeken. Although my style and Becca Feeken's style differ these dies are great for any style. I am using them to dress up some bold fall cards.
First let's take a look at each of these die sets.
Both are a set of four. Here are the sizes of the dies.
Largest Die = 4.9 inches
Medium Die = 3.9 inches
Small Die = 2.9 inches
Smallest, shape die = 2 inches
These dies nest together perfectly. You can die cut one of the dies on it's own for a decorative edge on your shape, or you can nest them together to die cut a beautiful frame. They also layer together for and even more stunning look.
Let's take a look at the three cards I made with these dies. You can see the making of these cards in THIS VIDEO.
My first card uses the Medium circle, cut as a frame.
I put this circle onto a card that is 4-1/4" x 8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4". I added some sprayed and splattered ink, using Blue Lagoon and Shimmer Gold Silks and Citrus Cooler Silk, all from the Spellbinders Shop. They all have a touch of shimmer to them and make for a quick and easy background. You can see me make this background in the video that showcases these dies.
The pumpkins I used for today's card are from the Martha's Pumpkins stamp and die set. I also used my favorite embellishment, Rainbow Drops, on all of these cards for some bling! Look how that Picot Petite Circle so beautifully frames the pumpkins.
For card two I wanted to layer up the circles, they are so pretty this way. I used the largest circle as a frame and the medium circle with out the center cut out. For my background I used the Oatmeal Cookie stamp pad and drug it across this card stock panel to create a woodgrain like look.
I would love to know what you think of Blue and Orange with Kraft as a fall color combination.
Card Three is a Slimline card!
The white panel on the front of this card measures 9" x 3". I was able to fit 2 die cut squares on the front and left the center whole to add some pumpkins and a sentiment.
What do you think about the addition of blue to a fall color scheme?
