Class of 14th September PART 2

Remember ladies - a die is not just for Christmas, it's for life  - oh....sorry that's dogs He He !!!!

 

What I meant to say was..... don't just think of your die as a cutter ! you can use it to make stunning backgrounds. This one was done on white card. I have just embossed the dies through my spellbinder machine (NOT cutting just embossing) moving the dies round in a random pattern. I put it through one final time without dies just to make sure it was all the same depth.

 

This picture is the underneath or the raised side, distressed with Adirondack (cranberry).

 

This is the top side or the debossed side, which has been stamped with the corresponding 'Justrite' stamps and again embossed with the cranberry Adirondack.

 

 

This one is the same principle using the Marianne snowflake stamps we used in class. This is the top side (debossed) using Chipped Sapphire, Tumbled glass and shaded lilac distress inks.......

 

 

and this is the reverse just distressed with the chipped sapphire. (oh ! and my handwritten notes but you get the idea...............don't you?????)

 

 

SO.... next time you get those dies out remember to think outside the box. Use them for creating fancy corners or edges. You don't have to use the whole die.
