Brick and Deckled Birthday

For this card, I pulled the ink colors and one of the card stock colors from the Masterfully Made designer series paper pattern on the front. In addition, I used some Soft Suede card stock that was embossed with the Exposed Brick embossing folder.

The Fresh Freesia circle is made with the Deckled Circles dies and the sentiment layer is made with the Lasting Label punch. The stamp set I used was the retired Lovely and Lasting set and I chose Pebbled Path and Starry Sky ink.

Supplies:

Lovely and Lasting

Pebbled Path, Starry Sky ink

Basic White, Fresh Freesia, Soft Suede card stock

Masterfully Made dsp

Lasting Label punch

Deckled Circles dies

Exposed Brick embossing folder

Every crafter needs some basic tools, and this is one of them! The Deckled Circle Dies quickly cut basic shapes with a twist—a deckled* edge! What can you do with something so basic? For starters, you can cut several sizes in different colors and layer them to create a big colorful circle. Cut different sizes and scatter them on your card for a fun background. Cut in rainbow colors, then cut the circle in half for two rainbows. The list goes on and on and on. If you have a die-cutting machine, you’ll want these dies! (And if you don’t have a die-cutting machine, this is your reason to get one!)

* Not sure what "deckled" is? Picture the edge of handmade paper. It’s untrimmed and irregular. That’s a deckle edge. The deckle edge on these dies mimics the irregular, uncut edge of handmade paper.

* 14 dies
* Largest die: 5-3/4" (14.6 cm) diameter
* Use with a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine
