Playing with the Pretty Pop-Ups Dies

Have you tried these Pretty Pop-Ups Dies yet? There are a must have in any craftroom!

Exciting facts about the dies:

Pretty Pop-Ups Dies are not bundlesd with a stamp set.
Most all the images pop up which gives it a 3D effect.
They are able to be used with a stamp set or by themselves on a card.
These dies include beautifully intricate butterflies, flowers, and greenery designs in circle, oval, and rectangle shapes.
The unique intricate designs and shapes of these dies allow you to use them as a centerpiece of your handmade projects or as a subtle texture or layer when not popped up.

I had so much fun Making these cards with the Pretty Pop-Ups Dies!

On this first card with the Pretty Pop-Ups Dies, I used quite a few products on it. I started with the Rectangle Dies, on this rectangle piece of Basic White cardstock is where I cut the Pretty Pop-Ups dies. Next I used the Scallop Contours Dies to add behind the rectangle for a layer of color. I blended colors with the blending brushes over the die cut area. This combination of colors is going to be one of my favorites for spring! The colors used are Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freisha, and Parakeet Party. What a wonderful use of color to give this a pop of color to the poped out die cut areas. In addition, I used the Double Oval Punch for the sentiment, new In Color Ribbon and the Quarterfoil Tile Embossing Folder to complete the card.

Card # 2 is by far my favorite! I used the Stampin’ Blends to color the pieces that pop out to show them off. I did case this card out of the catalog. you can see it on page 17. Yes, all those pieces will pop out if you want them to, however the nice thing is you can pick and chose which ones you want to pop.

As for this last card I cut 3 different color pieces of cardstock. I used the same Pretty Pop-Ups Dies on two of the pieces and on the thrid I used a couple of the pieces. The dragonfly and butterfly. This piece is also where I stamped the sentiment.

Here is the video I did over on Karen’s Stamping Place Facebook Page
