Diagonal Zigzag Card
Hi crafters! Need a quick card, like the clean and simple style of cards? This one is definitely for you! I hope you enjoy the video!
The finished dimensions are 7" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue, what a lovely card to send to someone who just needs some kind words, the subtle colours in the zigzag really work with the white space. Have a good day everyone. Bx
Hi Sue i really like the simplicity the clean look and freshness of today's sample. Male or female a change of colour scheme and it's good to go. These chosen colours would be great for either gender though. A tutorial I look forward to watching a little later. Have a great day whatever your plans xxx
Hello Sue and all Great card for all occasions today Sue, your geometric borders are so versatile and the zig zag perfect. Will watch the video later to see it all put together, Hugs Muriel x

Good Morning Sue. Brilliant card this morning Sue. I love the zigzag dies and I think these will be next on my list of must haves. Just Beautiful. Thank you Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.

Hi Sue, we always need quick and easy cards, this one is beautiful. And furthermore, I've got the zigzags so if I may I'll adopt your design. Hugs Rose
Lovely generic card. I was lucky enough to win the zig zag borders on their release and cut out batches of them in different colours while still stuck to the card they were mounted on. Result - lots of different size zig zags, and all useable, including the “waste”. Brilliant! Doreen R
Just bought this zig zag die, what a lovely example you have given us using it, cannot wait to get mine going...thank you Sue, most beautiful card...luv Ursula xx
Like anything clean & simple & the zig zags add a striking look to the card. Like others find the zig zags useful for children & men’s cards. Thank you Sue.
Hi Sue. I have to say that I do like these zig zag dies, especially for those cards for men. It is so easy to make a card with the colours of, for example, their football team.
Hi Sue When I first saw the zig zag dies I was curious how they could be used, but Wow they look awesome! Beautiful card I’m off to watch the video thanks for sharing. Hugs x Heather T
