Every now and again you need easy, right? We've become a huge fans of slip-in cards. They are cards that are cut partially inlaid so that you can simply slip a decorative panel into place and you're done. This month Die of the Month is called Rose & Filigree Duo Slip in Card.
Your panel can be decorative, textured or simply a sentiment. The partial inlay can be positioned just where you want it on your card from one side to another or midway. It can even be used to make a gatefold card or an actual belly band.
This month we have very delicate and subtle dies. I think they are perfect for birthday or wedding cards.
My Project Today:
I made a birthday card using one of the Die from the set. I cut from a cream paper and gold the same pattern and while adhering them I offset them a little. I cut a pink background and put it under bottom shape.
My second card:
My second card is in a lilac colour with a pearl paper. I decorated my card with some of the flowers made using Bacca's dies.

ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteHOW LOVELY, Kate! Your first card is SO ELEGANT & CLASSY with the colors you chose! AND your second card is GORGEOUS AS WELL, & gives us a touch of Spring with all the LOVELY colors!!! A SUPER JOB!!!!!! ;)<3
ReplyDeleteMaybe because I love roses, maybe because lilac is a favorite color or maybe because this is a lovely sentiment but mostly because of all the above, I particularly love your lilac card! It's easy to see how these dies will be among my favorites. Thank you, Kate!
ReplyDeleteLove your cards, especially the second one. I love the sentiment on the oval inset. How did you do that since you said you used no stamp and no ink? New to card-making. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas!
ReplyDeleteI wrote the sentiments in a graphic programme then I printed it out. When I need something I can create something different with different fonts and style.
DeleteYour cards are pure elegance, Kate! The gold on your first card is simply stunning, and I love the purple on your other gorgeous card! xx
ReplyDeleteWow! Absolutely beautiful cards! Love, love, love! tfs Hugs, Christine
