Friday Die-Day!

Hello friends,

Thank you for your brilliant support yesterday with my reveal of new dies.  

You never know which new dies are going to be allocated to you to showcase, but so far I've always been thrilled with the ones I get to play with!  

Using the Premium Craft Foils really adds that extra pizazz to a project.  

I've discovered that here in the UK you can buy them from here (free postage and packing too!) 

Also yesterday my blog got a makeover courtesy of the brilliant Laura Jane - so what do you think?
A couple of people have mentioned that the link text is difficult to see..I'm going to work on that - it appears it looks different dependent upon your computer - I've been making the boys call it up on their laptops etc!

I am loving my butterflies that wings look like hearts.

Right that's enough of me chatting on..we need to get to Friday Die-Day....

This week I'm featuring Romantic Rectangles

You receive 4 die templates with this set.

 This is how they look cut/embossed and stencilled.

I would recommend that when you are cutting you use a piece of waxed paper, the edges are intricate and it makes removing your cardstock/paper from the die so much easier.

 I think it is safe to say that most weeks I'm going to be featuring a tag! :)

Here I've used number 3 die template (smallest is always no.1 and count outwards).

I've inserted the tag inside the die so that only the bottom will be cut/embossed.

(Very much in love with my smaller plates - certainly cuts down on 'winding time').

 Here you can see how it has just cut/embossed a strip along the bottom of the tag.

 I've gone for red!  Applied some dotty paper and then from plain red paper cut/embossed No.2, attached with foam pads.

 And because I like to hold on to things - I'm using the Daisy Flower Topper I made some weeks ago...

 My signature piece of ribbon and twine.. it's lacking a butterfly isn't it - what was I thinking!?

Don't forget I'm still 'taking orders' on Friday Die-Day - drop me an email by using my super new button on my sidebar..can you tell I'm a little bit excited about my new blog!

Have a brilliant weekend dear friends.
