Christmas In July Celebration

I am participating in the Christmas in July Celebration on the Spellbinders Blog with a brand new stitching die called Stitched Joy.

This is a pretty one and remember I previously showed you my faux stitching with markers if you are not a stitcher.

Look at this pretty embossed background!  

This is one of the new embossing folders that give a 3D effect when used with the Universal Plate System. 

What's that?  It offers greater compatibility with longer platform and plates for slimline dies and embossing folders. It is compatible with Steel Rule Dies and 2D & 3D Embossing Folders (Spellbinders, Sizzix, Stampin' Up! and other brands)

These are SOOOO beautiful!  This one is called Tile Mosaic and I have three of the new folders in the photo below.  It is kind of hard to appreciate the beauty in a photo, but I promise you these are a real wow.

Spellbinders Embossing Folders are 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 so they accommodate cards of several sizes including slimline cards!

Gift Bags With Create A Flutter & Flower Dies

This is a cute twist on the basic bow. 

You can add a butterfly or a flower to the center with the new Create a Flutter & Flower Etched Dies.  I've also used the new Gift Bag Etched Dies to create two styles of gift bag.

  The one on the right with the handle is the what the die makes.  If you want to add a lid instead of a handle here are my measurements.

Cardstock 5-1/4" x 3-7/8"

Score all four sides at 1".

The bag before handles measures about 1-3/4" x 3-1/4" x 4-1/4".

You can also make this bag skinnier and taller by folding on the first score line instead of the intended, second score line.
