Stacked Noel Layering Die

Hi crafters!  Good morning and welcome to day three!  We are dedicating this post to the Stacked Noel Layering die.  I know it isn't a very Christmassy Christmas card, but I just loved the clean and simple style of this one!  Once again, what a great card for batch making!  The Noel die has two layers and a shadow backing so it is a bit different from the triple layering dies.  There is also a snowflake and an ornament that come with the set that can be overlaid onto the "O" to create different looks.  This set is bold enough to make a statement by itself or can be used with other dies to create more detailed looks too.  If this one is right up your street, don't forget to drop a comment on this post to get yourself entered into this drawing! The second post of the day will be here at noon.  All for now. Sue x

Morning Sue. Yes I like the simplicity of this die, it's bold but striking and imagine the amount of batch cards that could be made with different or even the same background. The more I look the more I think. Love it xxx

Magic Maggie said...

Err. that should be pink background (the white card base looked blue!)

Scottydog said...

Like the fact that even though it is a word die it has the extra embellishments. Could be used with numerous backgrounds. Thank you Sue.

Morning Sue, I love this die even more than when I first saw it. Perfect for the smaller cards that need posting and possibly would look good in a frame I am thinking . Yes this is on my list.

Morning Sue, I agree with the previous comments that this would be great for batch making, but dare I say it, sorry Sue, but not with a pink background. But I could see it on many other colours and on your Starry background shown yesterday. Hugs xx Pauline from Teesside

Hi Sue
Simple but oh so lovely. It is the simplicity of the die that I like so much.
I loved the Framed Noel die which you released back in 2014 - must have been your first Christmas release - but didn’t buy it at the time. I have been kicking myself ever since because try as I might for the last few years to get hold of one there are none floating about anywhere in the Crafty Retail Universe.
So, this new Noel die is a welcome consolation for my missing out on the other one!

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

Four letters that make a statement all on their own. The card today is stunning and I love that background. Eager to hear how you did that.

Good Morning Sue. Urrrhhhggg what an awful morning.... I am not used to this...I want to go back to Turkey where the sun is shining. Lol.
Beautiful sample this morning Sue. When I first opened up today...I wasnt quite sure....but after looking at it a few times...yes... I like it and I think it will be perfect for making all my line dance ladies thier cards. Isn't it funny how you can look at something and think... errm I don't know about this one... and then after a little thought and fifteen minutes later...it's top of your list. Does that happen to anyone else?...or is it just me. Anyway Sue... as always...you have won me over...again. Thankyou. Someone is going to be very lucky. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.

stitchingranny said...

Love the Noel die and the tiny bauble and snowflake would be handy too. I think this could be used as the main focal point or even just as a pretty sentiment.

Hello Sue
I like the simple, bold structure of this die. You are making it so difficult to choose a favourite.

Yes this die the stacking of the lettersof the word
appears to be quite a modern design i think, eg home decor too.

Tressa said...

I also like the simplicity of this example, it says what it needs to say and is an ideal example of a card that could be used for batch making. I find it more difficult to achieve this clean look as I always find the need to add things so appreciate it all the more.

Hello Sue. I think this is a really great idea for a festive die. Love the way it stands alone on this card meaning you can really go to town on the background.

Hi Sue, not too sure about the pink background lol but I love the Stacked Noel Layering die. I can actually see it cut in many colours and even in mirror card with a frame and that is all you need for a lovely quick card.

A really lovely die but sorry, I don’t like this card - it looks as if no effort has gone into it and its been thrown together. I suppose it’s just as well we all like different things! Sorry to be so critical but I have to be honest.

Simple but effective card. Like how you can split the letters with a quick snip and use them separately. Also could use the snowflake or bauble for other cards too. So versatile. Lisa xx
