Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for Day 2 of their DieCember® release blog hop. You can check out the awesome, new release HERE!
I have three projects to share today featuring the Diamond Tiles die set. This set is close to my heart because my oldest daughter, Alex, designed it. I coordinates well with her previously released Good Vibes stamp set.
For my first card I simply die cut several colors of solid colored cardstock using one of the smaller diamond dies. For the sentiment I used the CZ Hello die set with white & slate cardstock.
This second card features one of the middle diamond dies. For each die I used a darker & lighter shade of cardstock. The two colors together create a cool 3D look.
For the sentiment I used the CZ Hugs die with vellum and gold foil cardstock.
My third card uses the leftover diamonds that came out the second card die cuts. That’s what you call being thrift & nifty:)
For the sentiment I used one of the CZ Reverse Christmas Sentiment Strips.
Here’s a video to show you how I created these cards.
