Introducing Amazing Paper Grace | Sweet Cardlets II



Last October we introduced Cardlets and they are back in Sweet Cardlets II!  A "Cardlet" is a small character motif that comes with a sentiment that fits within a  3 x 3 area and has a matching die.  It just so happens that this size is perfect for the ever-popular Slimline Cards.  Join us in introducing a new slimline as well - Hemstitch Slimline  - it will match Hemstitch Rectangles and all of the other Hemstitch Classics.  



I am thrilled to partner with Amazing Paper Grace to bring you this little taste of inspiration!

I made a set of slimline card and box, I use : 

Cup of Kindness Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set from Sweet Cardlets II Collection by Becca Feeken


Scroll down to watch video where I show you how I create the card.

Sweet Cardlets are just like stamps, but they are metal plates used in the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System to transfer foil to paper through a combination of heat and pressure.  The Glimmer machine base is rolled through your die-cut machine to deliver that pressure. (Compatibility charts on the Spellbinders website)







The Inspiration behind Sweet Cardlets II

Since we are premiering the first Slimline Card Die for the Amazing Paper Grace line of dies, we wanted you to have plenty of sweet elements that fit onto the slimline.  The small motif 3" x 3" footprint makes this easy.  Add to that there is a matching die it makes for a cute pop of dimension on all of your cards - Slimline, A2 or A7.


Always mindful of the budget, Becca wanted to create a collection where each set is all you need to make a little card.  Sweet Cardlets are small motifs with a 3" x 3" footprint.  Sweet Cardlets also fit into the Cascade Card Base and work along with all of the Shadowbox Dies.


Each of our Creative Team members will show you their take on cards made with the Sweet Cardlets II Collection.

Lifetime of Happiness

Hello! today I have a super cute card created for Amazing Paper Grace using: 

Tulip Trio Etched Dies from Stained Glass Bouquet Collection by Becca Feeken


I use the square die to cut the front of the card only,  I try to make a "window" I covered the back with acetate, then I just decorate with seam binding, stamps and small flower. 


Thank you so much for stop by my blog.

Amazing Paper Grace May Die of the Month Blog Hop – Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate


 

You can tell that around here, we adore spring and the prospect of blooming flowers. This month we invite you to take an idyllic stroll to a place of beauty. It calls and beckons to you, to come and sit down and enjoy your surroundings and all of the nature around you. Today I'm introducing a beautiful new Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month.  The way in . . . is through the Garden Gate. Introducing the beautiful new Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for May 2021, Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate.

Dies for my creations today were supplied by Amazing Paper Grace.

This A7 showpiece folds flat into an envelope, only to expand and sit on a desktop where it invites the lucky recipient to take a stroll through the Garden Gate. As always, this die is meant to break apart and use the dies separately.  The elements are less than 4" wide and are begging you to use them on an A2 card. You'll love the charming details - hinges, a hook lock and a swinging sign to record your message.

Here are some ideas that might inspire you to create a flat card or box:

1.  The picket fence for a gatefold card (hint the gate really opens).
2.  The Arches for a wedding.
3.  The flowers and vines are curved to fit the arch but also make a wreath.
4.  A picket fence box and the arches for handles.

Inviting you to plan your own garden and know you are in a place of peace and beauty when you come in through the Garden Gate.


 

There are 15 dies included in the Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate.

 







 

My Project Today using Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate.

I create a set of container and matching card, I love to create this kind of sets they are perfect for gifts and using these dies make everything so easy!

 

Designer Tip:  try to use the elements on your dies in different ways.
