How beautiful is this?! Paper threading, folks!! To recreate this beauty, use the Circle Border die on white cardstock & thread your favorite colors of colored cardstock through the holes after cutting to size. This Birthday sentiment is from Paper Smooches, Sentiment Sampler.
Can't pick your favorite color of paper? Try a Simon Says Stamp custom assortment pack from Bazzill!
Isn't this gorgeous! Lisa cut and pasted card stock in this pattern before die cutting, but you could also just run the circle border die through with your favorite patterned paper! Tie if off with your favorite ribbon!
I love that Lisa put a holiday spin on this card design! I think this is totally beautiful and elegant, and yet, it could be mass produced without a great deal of time!
Supplies to make similar creations of all the beautiful creations above:

I use my SSS products to make cards and gift for my family and friends. That's the best part of having these wonderful products.. to share the outcome with the ones I love.
ReplyDeleteWow, stunning effects!

ReplyDeleteI am all about art journaling so I always put my products to use in my art journal. I also share them with my seven year old daughter, who does quite a bit of crafting, too!
ReplyDeleteamazing bright, cheerful, dynamic cards full of texture! LIKE/LOVE them! how I use supplies? making blank greeting cards I share with Operation Write Home...they go to our deployed heroes so that they can, in turn, use them to keep in touch with their loved ones! Very gratifying and creative all at the same time! thanks for the chance to win! I'm too shy to post my examples here...they're not quite worthy compared to the skill level I see here...but I'll keep working on it!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the paper threading! I was thinking of doing the same thing with your AIR vent die...have not tried it yet,but after this morning's inpiration I'm gonna give it a go:)

ReplyDeleteHere's a card I made with the SS Fresh Daisies Die.
What beautiful cards. Love how Lisa threaded cardstock to make those cards pop. Never would have thought of that to do. Brillant. I own a few of SSS dies and stamp sets. Have used the stamp sets alot for sentiments on cards etc. I own the star die so I don't know if it would work with is die.
ReplyDeleteKudos to Lisa! All of these cards are amazing. You have really sparked my imagination to look at my punches differently. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards. I love how you've used the same die several ways. The ribbon threading looks fantastic. :)

ReplyDeleteI was drawn to the SSS dies at first (fresh daisies, plus a "few" others). I'm really loving the stamp and die coordinating sets too!
ReplyDeleteThese are so fabulous! I love each one. I need that circle die...it's on my wish list! I would use it as intended but I see other possibilies too!

ReplyDeleteVery creative uses for the dies, I wouldn't have come up with this, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI don't have any of the exclusive dies yet (on my wish list!) but I have been using my Kelly Purkey stamps on everything! Here are a couple cards with the stamps: http://freshcrafts.blogspot.com/2012/10/world-card-making-day.html
