Die'sire Prestige Only Words Christmas Dies

Die'sire Prestige Only Words Metal Dies from Crafter's Companion USA create beautiful die-cut and embossed elements. Well guess what! They just released MORE of these fantastic dies for Christmas! YAY! The NEW Prestige Only Words Christmas Dies are perfect for Christmas card designs and projects.

Here's a card I made using the new JOY die, along with another new die that was recently released - the Edge'ables Christmas Fancy Borders Snowflake Die.

It's hard to capture the great shimmer and shine from the embossing glitter on the Joy die, but it's there.

BONUS! You can use the Joy die beyond Christmas projects. Simply layer a solid circle on top to cover "joy" and you can use it for any occasion. Or you could cut off the "joy" leaving a nice open area for a stamped image, shaker card, photograph, etc.

I backed the center of the JOY die with a circle of the NEW Forest Green Shimmering Cardstock. I used the same cardstock to die-cut & emboss the NEW Snowflake Edge'ables Die - and made the top-fold notecard from it as well. The brown snowflake paper is printed from the Nordic Christmas Papercrafting CDROM. It's great because you can print as much as you need!

I carried the design through to the inside of the card, adding a stamped and glitter embossed sentiment from the Vintage Christmas Collection Sentimentals - Home for Christmas Stamp Set that paired perfectly with the theme. The snowflakes were die-cut from the border die using scraps, then cut away from the border to make single pieces.

This card really feels and looks luxurious. The Shimmering Cardstock is smooth and heavyweight, and makes the best die-cut and embossed pieces. You really must try this cardstock for die-cutting and embossing.

Check out all the great new Prestige Christmas Words Only Dies along with all the other new products over on the Crafter's Companion USA website.

Happy Crafting,

Christmas In July

Hello friends! The month of July is when we start seeing all sorts of NEW Winter and Christmas crafty products. As a stamper and paper crafter, it's a month I soooo look forward to. One of the perks of being on design teams - we get to see and create with new goodies before they are released. That being said...stay tuned for some FUN and FABULOUS new goodies coming very soon!  I don't have any new holiday products that I can share with you yet, but I will.....real soon! ;)

In the meantine, I've created a "Christmas in July" card using a die the was recently released over at Crafter's Companion. The Die'sire Prestige Only Words metal die collection.

I used the "Wishing You Everything" die to look as if it were a belt buckle. This saying is perfect for Christmas time!  I die-cut from White Pearl Shimmering Cardstock. The details on these dies are beautiful. You will absolutely LOVE them! I do.
I have 'em all.

I adhered the diecut to a strip of Black Pearl Shimmering Cardstock, which I embossed the edges by scoring with The Ultimate Tool for added dimension and detail. The band (aka Santa Belt) is adhered with dimensional foam tape to a red cardstock base that's embossed with the Petite Dot 6" x 6" Embossalicious Embossing Folder. I rounded the bottom corners, add some red rhinestones and shimmering ribbon to finished the card design.

Prestige Dies Sneak Peak

Crafter's Companion USA is getting ready to release the most magnificent - MUST HAVE - Die'sire Dies. This new series is called the Prestige Only Words Collection. These dies are real statement pieces! Stunning die-cutting and embossed results.

I'm super excited to share this sneak using the NEW Be Beautiful Die .

I die-cut and embossed the Be Beautiful die from Black Pearl Shimmering cardstock, then added cardstock pieces to the back. I LOVE how it turned out!

I used oval dies to create a hand mirror. The handle I cut out by hand. That mirror adhesive sheet is really stuff from Tim Holtz worked really cool for the mirror. I just wish I could have taken a picture that realy shows it has reflection.What a super fun element to coordinate with the sentiment die.

Stay tuned for the official US release of these new dies. You will want them all!
