Circle Apertures

Hi bloggers!  You have seen the squares, but of course, we have to have circles too, now don't we!  We are showcasing the Circle Apertures during this post.  I have designed these in the same way as the squares so you will have the decorative squares around the outside circles and the scalloped inside circles, which, again, you can use together or by themselves.  It is really pretty easy to do too, you just need to cut the outer circles with the decorative squares so you have a sort of guide (I keep an extra one handy just to use to cut the inner circles.)  Tape it in place (with removeable tape) on top of the card you want to use for the inner circles, then just tape the four scalloped circle dies into the apertures from the outer circles.  Remove the top die and cut the card with the four taped dies in place.  They will line up perfectly if you use them together if desired.  I love that these dies work so well with so many of my older die sets too as you can see from this sample.  Go ahead and leave a comment and your name is automatically entered into the drawing to win it!  I shall return at 3pm today with the next die set.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue

Well I wasn’t expecting that. No idea why because you always cover all then possibilities don’t you?

These are great too and so useful. Lovely cute card.

Hi Sue, a lovely card and I 'think' I follow your instructions :-) but yes, if you have squares you must have circles.

Also the circle version looks amazing, and so different by the square one! That inner scallop looks very sweet! Another fabulous sample!

Good afternoon Sue this is a stunning card. I do love that die. Take care. Hugs Jackie

When is a square not a square? When it is designed by Sue Wilson. So pleased that these will still fit my square cards & there are options as well. Inner & outer, just inner or just outer, so versatile. Thank you Sue.
