Slimline Shadowbox

Hello bloggers!  We are starting day two with the Slimline Shadowbox die set.  There are two dies in this set which are the actual shadowbox die and an outer cutting die.  I made the decision to not add any stitching or piercing to this die because you can easily cut away some of the boxes to create larger box areas.  This will allow you so much more versatility in the projects you can do!  If this set is singing your name, then don't forget to add a comment to this post.  Also, to remind you that I have added the Pinterest button on every post so if you want to save any of the samples for later inspiration, please feel free to do so.  I will be back at noon with the next offering of the day.  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue.
I'm loving the accessories within your little frame, I'm not certain how much I'd use the slimline frame, not because I'm not a lover of them but I don't think it's the first die I'd reach for. Saying that can I pass my opportunity of being drawn for the slimline dies to someone that really loves them and would use them more often than I would, as I'm not using the first shadow box dies like I use to, it's taken this post to give me a prod to remember to hike them from the storage box!
Stay well, love to all xxx

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another perfect addition to the collection, and a good idea not to add the piercing so can be used for larger cards, I like that, your so thoughtful, I am sure there will be loads of samples for us to see for ideas, thank you. Good Luck everyone.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xx

Just when you thought the shadow boxes had gone as far as they could - now this. As far as I'm concerned this is a game-changer. The applications are endless.
Hope you are well.

Good Morning Sue. I was never a big lover of the shadow boxes... Even though they are and make a lovely card. But it's the first time I have seen one on a slimline card ... And I like it. I like that you can snip it to suit yourself. Another lovely card Sue. Thankyou. Someone is going to be very lucky to win this set.
Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
Please stay safe and well 🙏

Another great card. I was going through my dies the other day & saw my shadow box dies & thought I must use those again. Just need the time! Thank you Sue.

Pauline Austen said...

Morning Sue,
I only have one of your previous shadow box frames and have used it tirelessly for making cards for my family and friends, so this slimline version would make another useful addition to my collection.
Love the card.

Loving your idea with this one especially when you say about cutting sections away, I can see them re-arranged in different ways or just using smaller pieces to turn into a smaller square card, lots of options, great design.

Helen Bell said...

Hi Sue

What an lovely die. A brilliant idea to leave off any piercing or stitching on the edges, leave them plain for much more versatility in snipping them. Genius. A reminder to self… dig out your other shadow box dies and use them!!

Great card too.

Love Helen xxx

Hi Sue, a lovely card and I love the idea of a slimline shadowbox. I am a fan of the square ones so this one would only extend my choices. Great idea to make it plain so that it can be snipped about.
