Crisscrossed Layered Die Card




Hi crafters!  It always surprises me how different so many dies look when they are crisscrossed.  The Lola die shown here is almost unrecognisable when used in this manner.
































The finished dimensions are 7" x  7" in size.  All for now. Sue x

I love waking up to your beautiful blog, everyday new inspiration and idea's on how to make the most of the dies you bring. I wish I had the nack and knowledge to see in my minds eye how many ways one collection of dies can be used, there must be loads, if you take one complete set of maybe 6 dies from the smallest centre die to the outer cutting die I wonder how many cards can be made from just one collection - hmmmm interesting challenge there for someone lol. I'm looking forward to watching you put this beautiful sample together. Oh and I was introduced to the Yupo paper yesterday and it has the feel of our U.K. £5 note, how odd is that lol. Sending love and hope your Saturday is a great one xxx

Hello Sue
I am always amazed how you can use one die and come up with so many different ideas. I am at my daughters again so will watch the video later.June I am so sorry to hear about your brother.

Hi Sue
That is such a striking card. I will look forward to watching the video later with my feet up and a cuppa!
Lola does, as you say look so different used like this. She’s a girl of hidden talents. I am guessing you have used cobalt card which is such a fabulous colour and gives such a clean crisp and fresh look. The stamp used in the background I recognise and am sure I have that one from quite a few years back (or I have something very similar). Well I will see if I am right later when I have watched the video.
I hope everyone has something nice planned for this bank holiday weekend. Happy Saturday everyone x

Hello Sue and all
Love the crispness of the blue and white and Lola certainly is unrecognisable, I agree Steph, there must be unlimited options with a set of 6 dies. The water mark really adds interest, will watch video later, looking forward to it
