Hello My Dear Crafty and Stamper Friends:
How to use your winter or Christmas dies/stamps
for other occasions?
In this sample card I use a snowflake die as a fall background
and made a bookmark matching the card.
Pin it:
I love to re-purpose things and stretching my stamps or dies can fall into this category...
by
just changing the colors and using the die in a slightly way, using it as a
background...I manage to strech my Chritsmas die and give it a longer
use...
Don't you think, that is does not look at all Chritsmas?
How I did it?
I choose 3 main colors: yellow; brown and blue
sponged each snowflake in the softer shade of a color and then sponge with a darker hue the same snowflake on the center.
Repeat the same process on each one of the snowflakes, just notice that the sides have a same continuity in the colors and in the center I changed the colors...
This die is a Poppystamps border die from the holiday 2014 release...and I am sure I will use it again this time in a Christmas card :)...
the shape of this border die is perfect to put it in a bookmark...and you will have a nice Fall combo gift to send to a friend!!!
Let me know, what die or stamp
have you used in a different way
as originally intended to be used ...
Thanks for the visit
and hope I brought you another point of view ...
