Amazing Paper Grace June Die of the Month Blog Hop – Victorian Splendor Slimline


What's better than one world? Well, of course, it's the best of both worlds! 
Today we are introducing a new Slimline Die that is part of an A7 Card Front - we call it an all-in-one. Who knew that slimline could look so feminine - welcome the slim new Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for June 2021, Victorian Splendor Slimline.

Dies for my creations today were supplied by Amazing Paper Grace.

Our inspiration is always being able to get the most out of a die set and this one scores high on the bar for functionality and feminine appeal. If you can imagine a "Card Creator" type of die that has an inset Slimline, a decorative inset Border, and a sentiment label that could all be used in a Card Front - then you'd be looking at Victorian Splendor Slimline. It has A2 and A7 elements. It functions as a Card Front and pretends to be a slimline - all in one.

Here are some ideas that might inspire you to use pieces of the set:
1. Pull the mini-sized slimline out and use it separately.
2. Inlay the border at the bottom and top of a landscape A7 Card.
3. Create a tall gatefold by folding in the border panel on two cuts of the A7 card front.



There are 10 dies included in the Victorian Splendor Slimline.

My Project Today using Victorian Splendor Slimline.


Today I prepared a simple Wedding card. I used a narrow pattern die to decorate a cover.  Second decorative die cut from a gold paper I put inside to decorate sentiments printed on a floral paper. 



My second creation is a bookmark. I printed a floral pattern and die cut using rectangle die from the set. I decorate it with a one slimline die cut. At the top and at the bottom I put another decorative element between two papers.

Deer Friend Glimmer Hot Foil Plate | Spellbinders

 

I hope I don't have to convince you about the Sweet Cardlets II Collection designed by Becca Feeken. 
Today I'm sharing a slime card featuring Deer Friend Glimmer Hot Foil Plates. This set includes Deer plates and coordinate die, flowers plate and coordinate die and sweet sentiment "Deer Friend" plate.


I also used S6-175 Hemstitch Slimline from Amazing Paper Grace. From white paper, I die cut large and medium rectangles. The medium one I inked with Distress Oxide Ink - Spun Sugar and Kitsch Flamingo. Deers are foiled with gold and brown Glimmer foil rolls. 


Flower crowns are colored with alcohol markers.


I hope you liked it.

Cup of Kindness from Amazing Paper Grace | Glimmer Hot Foil Plates


Today I'd like to share a card that I made using a cute set of Glimmer plates from Amazing Paper Grace - GLP-284 Cupe of Kindness. This set includes teapot and tea cup plates and coordinating dies, a beautiful frame, sweet small hearts, and a sentiment "You're my cup of tea".


To foil the frame, teapot, and tea cups I used a pink foil roll. For sentiment and hearts, I used a red foil roll.

Flowers are handmade using June 2020 Die of the Month
