Tools, tools, tools – the theme of this month’s blog hop!
Without all of these incredible tools, I don’t know how I could craft! Things would not be cut straight, I would have such incredible dimension, and I would not be able to put such intricate detailed cut outs on my projects!
I have decided to focus on the Stampin’ Up! Die Cutting and Embossing Machine as my tool of choice this month!
My Project
Some cardstock, the Handsomely Suited Dies, and the Stampin’ Up! Die Cutting and Embossing Machine allowed me to create this fabulous wall art as a special gift for the bride and groom for the wedding I attended this past weekend! I know they are going to LOVE it!
Close Up Views
I had the pleasure of attending a very beautiful and special wedding this past weekend. The bride is the daughter of some LONG TIME friends of ours! I had no idea what her dress was going to look like but I thought about what I thought she would select for a gown. I couldn’t not of hit it any closer than I did! This home decor piece was created using the Handsomely Suited dies from the Stampin’ Up! annual catalog, as well as some older(retired) dress dies that I just can’t part with! (Can you tell why?). To make it much more personal, I included the wedding invitation and the belly band that held the invitation together. I was a perfect match!!
Keep in mind, Stampin’ Up! products aren’t just for cards! Think outside the box! Get creative; that’s what it is all about! These handsomely suited dies create endless projects? What can you think of? Post your ideas on my discussion and get a free surprise from me!
