Sneak peek for Tall Slim Card

Another sneak peek for a Tall Slim Card. Happy Boxing Day! Did you have a good Christmas Day? Did Santa bring you all you wanted on your wish list? I hope so.

I made a tall slim card “casing the catalogue” for a blog hop recently which you can see HERE. The cards were created using the special Slim Card Dies. There are two patterns in the set. One cuts out a mosaic pattern and the other cuts out a chevron pattern. In addition there are two border dies.

Both Sale-a-bration and the new January-June 2022 mini catalogue will launch on January 4, 2022 so I’m excited about sharing some sneak peeks!

The die is quite large and because there are so many “bits”, I adhered the card stock with an adhesive sheet prior to stamping and cutting. As I was stamping on ordinary card stock, I used my Stamparatus to stamp the floral image from “Crane of Fortune” in the same spot several times.

After stamping and die-cutting, I inserted all the die cut pieces back into the frame. I deliberately didn’t add a sentiment so I can use this card for whatever occasion when the need arises.

I love the envelops too. They come in a pack of 15 and are sold separately. The envelops are lined too, with a pretty pattern. Each pack contains 3 colours of envelops, 5 each of White, Smoky Slate and Soft Succulent.

More ideas

Die cut the chevrons in more than one colour. Then you can mix and match them. You can also use them with, or without the rectangular border. The advantage of including the border is that it aids positioning the chevrons more accurately.

By the way, do you think the chevrons are different sizes? It’s just a trick of the eye because the chevrons are, in fact, all the same size!
