I have long admired the work of fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, Gail Ellis. She creates really pretty sets of cards, often featuring Basic White, a neutral, and one colour. I decided to try CASE’ing* one of her recent designs that features the Fresh Cut Flowers Bundle, which combines the beautiful Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set (AC p. 65) with the limited-time Fresh Cut Stems Dies.
*CASE’ing (Copy And Share Everything) is a common and accepted practice in the paper crafting world, as long as credit is given to the original artist.
I love how her designs work so nicely together, though they aren’t necessarily meant to be a set.
The Fresh Cut Stems Dies have 4 outline dies that coordinate with the stamps in the set, but also have 8 additional dies that make great coordinating shapes.
This card adds in the fun Split Card Textures Die for some additional visual interest.
And this one includes the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder.
Do you have a favourite? What about swapping out a different colour? Do you think it needs to stay in the Subtles family, or would a bright colour work, too? Let me know in the comments!
Here’s the supply list…remember the dies are only available through the end of September!
