The Snowflake Block die by Simon Says Stamp is beautiful!! I have made three cards to showcase different ways you might think to use this die...
I did a silver and black shaker Christmas card. Used a sentiment from a stamp set released last year. Die cut and layered shiny silver paper, then die cut some tiny snowflakes for the shaker stuffings...
The second one, I watercolored a background with 2 shades of blue. I die cut the block from super thick cardstock to make certain the snowflakes would hold on their own...
I popped up the top panel and used another Simon sentiment from Holiday Hellos set, stamped in versamark and silver embossed...

The third one, I opted for nontraditional colors...coral and browns ...
I used strips of paper, adhered to paper, and adhered a layered block over the strips. I layered all of that on a colored card of the same color as the strips...
I think this die makes for some pretty cards!! And did I mention FUN??!! Thanks for visiting me today!!
Hugs!! Lisa

ReplyDeleteThat first one is soooo elegant. Love the other two as well - great use of the snowflakes for different looks.
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards! When I first saw the die, I thought "beautiful but limited" but you've created such very different cards. Might have to add it to my wish list :)
