This is a gorgeous die. It's hard to show off how gorgeous in photos. I was surprised at how much better it looks in real life. The new die brush makes these intricate dies so much easier to use. You run the die through the Big Shot 3 or 4 times. I use a couple of pieces of card on top to make it tighter but each Big Shot is different. If you need to use excess force to push it through you have too much in your sandwich. Check the die has cut right through before you remove it from the die. You can tell by turning the die over. Once it is ' done' you place it on the die brush Matt, die side up and gently run the brush over and the bristles push out the small pieces of card. Magic. Have a look at this video about the die brush.
This first one is Basic Black cardstock with Bermuda Bay. I used Dimensionals to attach the diecut flowers. I embossed the Wooden Expression in white. Love these wooden expressions and I hope they don't retire them in June.
Rose Red cardstock. Once the diecut was cut I attached a piece of Vellum to the back of the panel where the image had been cut out from and then carefully applied adhesive on the back of the heart using the new fine tip glue pen. Check this out.
This would make a great wedding card. It is in Very vanilla and uses the same technique with vellum as above.
Whisper White thick cardstock for this card and Bermuda Bay for the heart and flowers.
Another square card using Pink Pirouette and Whisper White. The sentiment is from the Bloomin' Love stamp set.
So impressed with this die.
Oops forgot this one. The lovely delicate little flowers from this set teamed with die cut flowers. Beautiful. Sentiment is from Perfect Pairings in the free Saleabration flyer.
