It's Day 2 of the January My Creative Time Sneak Peeks, and today I'm showcasing a great new set of dies to help you get ready for Valentine's Day: Stitched Sweetheart & XOXO! I used it to make a cute little 3x3 card.
This die set includes the adorable "xoxo" and three different size heart dies. What I love about these hearts is that they stitch the positive and negative of your die cuts, which makes the possibilities of their uses just endless! I had fun using all four of the dies to a make a "nestled die cut" look. If you're interested in trying out this technique, you can see the video I made using the same technique on a tag last week.

ReplyDeleteThis is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!! I don't know if I could have kept that itty bitty pink piece inside the "o" from getting lost in the puzzle/glue back together process but WOW I LOVE how it turned out!!!! What a fun technique and a super awesome way to show off this new die set in its fullness. I could envision how the die came after seeing your card even before Emma sneaked it in her video. Anyway, awesome job! LOVE it! You ROCK! Hugs- Glora
