Slim Card Dies

Welcome everyone,

I love making slimline cards and I have used the Slim Card dies (#157965) for the scalloped edge on this card.

I cut the Evening Evergreen card (#155575) and the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper (retired) with the scalloped die. I matted the top & bottom of the DSP with the Evening Evergreen card and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The birds from Free As A Bird stamp set (#149468) were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). The Stampin’ Blends to colour this image are Daffodil Delight (#154883), Soft Succulent (#155521) and Crumb Cake (#154882). I added Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to give some sparkle to the birds. This was then cut with an Ornate Layers Die (#152726) and attached to a slightly larger piece of Evening Evergreen card.

The sentiment is from the Expressions Of Friendship stamp set (#158460) and stamped with Soft Succulent ink (#155778). The die to cut this is from the Tasteful Labels dies (#152886) and the Evening Evergreen card under the sentiment was cut with a Layering Circles Die (#151770). The flower was cut with the Summer Shadows Dies (#156618) using Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and Gold Foil Sheet (#132622). The gold foil was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) so it was easy to attach to the base flower. The sentiment and flower were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I cut the 3 leaves from Evening Evergreen card, backed with Adhesive Sheet, with a die from the Eden Dies (#157831). The (retired) Garden Gems were added to the card for some bling.

TIP: The Summer Shadows Dies were available during a previous Sale-a-bration so you may already have these,  but if not there is great news, they will be available again in the next Annual catalogue. They also co-ordinate with the Shaded Summer stamp set (#155783).

Slim Card Dies

Hello ladies & guys,

Here’s a fairly easy card using the Slim Card Dies (#157965).

I cut the Flowering Fields 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#157670) with one of the Slim Card dies. I then placed the DSP that is ‘all connected” onto a piece of Gorgeous Grape card, measuring 7.6cm x 20.2cm (3”x8”) as shown below.

I used a post it note to keep this in place, then I glued each of the separate pieces back into it’s original position using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755). I then removed the “template” piece leaving the glued pieces on the Gorgeous Grape card.

I attached the completed piece to the Very Vanilla Base card (#106550).The sentiment is from the Positive Thoughts stamp set (#151490) and stamped with  Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). A die from the Ornate Layers Dies (#152726) was used to cut the sentiment, then matted with Gorgeous Grape card. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach this to the card. I chose the Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) for the embellishments.

 TIP: The piece of Designer Paper which was used as a template and not used on this card can be used for another card.

Daffodil Daydream Bundle

Hi friends,

The Slim Card Dies (#157965) has 4 dies which can be used for a slim line card and I have used one for the background of this card.

Before cutting the Basic White card (#159228) with the die, I adhered the Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back. This makes it so much easier to attach it to the base card. This was then attached to the Basic White base card which was cut at 22cm x 18cm and scored in half at 9cm. This fits perfectly into the Slimline Envelopes (#157981).

The daffodils from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786) were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). These were cut with the Daffodil Dies (#157794). The Stampin’ Blends to colour the images are Daffodil Delight (#154883) and Granny Apple Green (#154885).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Biggest Wish stamp set (#155952). “Birthday” was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and “Happy” with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095). I used a Hippo & Friends Die (#153585) to cut the sentiment. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the sentiment and the daffodils with the 3 flowers to the card. I used the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897) for some glitter on the flowers and the embellishment are from the Playing With Patterns Resin Dots (#152467).

Friendly Hello Slimline card

Hi,

Here is another slim line card, this time using the Slim Card Dies (#157965) to cut the fancy curve at the bottom of the card.

I cut the Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper (#159990) and the Shaded Spruce card (#147006) with one of the Slim Card dies. I attached the DSP which is part of the Friendly Hello stamp set & Designer Series Paper from Sale-a-bration to the Shaded Spruce card.

I stamped the flowers with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708), the small bunches of leaves with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) and the single leaves with Shaded Spruce ink (#147088).  These leaves were coloured with Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends (#154902). I added colour to the flowers with Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends (#155518) .  All these images are from the Friendly Hello stamp set and I fussy cut all these stamped images.

“Happy Birthday” is from Biggest Wish stamp set (#155052) and stamped on Basic White card (#159228). This was stamped with Granny Apple Green ink and Shaded Spruce ink. I used a die from the Tailor Made Tags (#155563) to cut the sentiment.

The base card is Basic White and the finished size is 21cm x 9.5cm. This fits the Slimline Envelopes (#157981). The flowers were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430). The embellishments are Iridescent Basic Jewels (#158130).

TIP: You can use smaller pieces of the Shaded Spruce card by cutting a narrow strip, approximately 1cm, to attach to the top of the DSP and another strip, approximately 3cm, to attach to the bottom of the DSP, rather than one full piece.
