Elegant Border Dies makes beautiful cards

 Elegant Border Dies are a set of dies that every crafter needs in their stash of dies.  From pretty cards, to gift bags to edges on 3D projects, these will be your go to dies for any & all borders.

On the live today, I showed you how easy it is to make a series of cards with little effort that looks like you spent all day making them.  I made 5 cards in a hour (note: all the borders were pre-cut to save time on the live), the good thing is you can cut multiples of these in one pass on your die cut machine.

How to make beautiful Vellum Backgrounds with Stampin' Blends and Isopropyl Alcohol

 As promised, I have revisited the making of Vellum Backgrounds using the Stampin' Blends along with regular rubbing alcohol.  I know it sounds too simple to be beautiful but you be the judge.  

The first image, I made a card from.  I did embellish it using Gilded Leafing which is available in our Annual Catalog.

The second image was just me playing with different shades of blue to see what I could develop using only one pallet of colors.
