Another Way to Use Diorama Dies

Another Way to Use Diorama Dies

In the Diorama Die class wanted to have one card that’s not quite what will be expected.  I thought it would be fun to use the squiggly pieces that come out of the center of the diorama dies.  While I was online I came across a card someone else made and found it to be perfect.

Here is my version of their idea.

Pansy Mother’s Day Card

Pansy Mother’s Day Card

Mom, are you looking at my blog?  If so, skip this post for now!

There, I needed a little disclaimer just in case!  I can’t wait until after Mother’s Day to share this card with you.  Yesterday I shared a card using the Pansy Patch stamp set, and today I want to share a card that was made primarily with the Pansy Dies.  There are soooo pretty!

Majestic Mountain Dies from Stampin’ Up!

Majestic Mountain Dies from Stampin’ Up!

I love when you can use a set of dies independent of the stamp set and they still work sell.   Does that make sense?  Some dies are made to cut out a specific stamped image and if you don’t have that image, the die doesn’t make sense.  Other dies can stand independently and you still know what they are.

The Majestic Mountain dies are some that can be used independently and still make sense.  They coordinate with the Mountain Air stamp set.

In this card you can see how the stamps where used, but then die cut images were also used on their own and now stamped image was needed to figure out what they are.
