On Your Special Day

This is another of the cards that I created for the latest Special Edition of Die-cutting essentials - I was commissioned to create four cards using the beautiful free gifts that are included with the magazine.

I used the free die, one of the sentiment stamps and one of the patterned papers that are included with the magazine to create this card.


I snipped into the die which is actually a complete square and added some black pearls to the centre of some of the flowers.


I kept things simple as I was commissioned to create cards that were easy to make quite quickly.


Thank you for calling this morning, please leave a comment so that I know you've been and will be able to come and visit you.

  9. What a wonderful idea to snip into the die and just use a portion of it. I'll have to try to remember than. Love the little black pearls also. Have a wonderful day.

  15. A very clever way to make this square die more versatile, and it certainly looks dramatic with the added dark centers against the gold. Love that you've replicated the pattern in the border treatment too. So pretty. TFS

  16. Beautiful card, I like the patterned paper that matches the die. If you don't have that you could make the border also from the square die. I like how you snipped the die to make room for the sentiment.
