So many ways to use the Blizzard Thinlits Die

I love the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set and the coordinating Blizzard Thinlits Die.  It's one of those stamp sets that I initially didn't think I'd buy, but once I started to see all of the beautiful cards created by other Demonstrators I knew I had to have it.  I particularly love the look of the cards with the water coloured backgrounds.

I played with this bundle yesterday and wanted to share some of the amazing things you can do with it.

  1. The stamp set is perfect by itself to make a beautiful card for the holiday season.  Don't you love the sentiments!
  2. You can cut out lots of different shapes and sizes of snowflakes using the Blizzards Thinlits Die
  3. You can use the negative from the cut out snowflakes as a background for your stamp - just put coloured cardstock behind it
  4. You can use the Blizzard Thinlits Die to emboss a piece of cardstock using the Big Shot Embossing Mats - these mats allow you to turn in any of your favourite Framelits, Thinlits or Edgelits dies into embossing tools.
I'm sure there are lots of other creative ideas.

Here is a card I made using both the stamp set and cut out snowflakes.
For this card I cut out snowflakes using Sparkle Glimmer paper and after stamping my card, I adhered them - layering them to give more of a 3D effect.

Here's what you get when you use the die to emboss a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  I haven't made a card yet with this, but I'll share it when I do.
I love the fact that by using the Embossing Mats you can turn any of your dies into embossing tools!
