Hi All,
Simon Says Stamp is celebrating their annual Die-cember, so I thought I would join in the fun! You can make a beautiful card with just some simple die cutting – and it’s so fast! Very useful for this time of year, right?
I used this Spinner Trail die for the card, but you could use any border die or an intricate die that can be separated into pieces that can be repeated. Depending on your colors, this design also makes a great masculine card.
Enjoy the video!

I love the simplicity of this card and the colour combination you selected. When I saw this new die in the SSS DieCember lineup, I wondered if it was a die for a spinner card. I have the Stampin Up Swirly Scribbles die set and think it would also work but require a bit more fiddling around. I’m going to give it a try anyway though and see how I go (smile).

How pretty this looks, I’m thinking of using foil paper in red, gold, green and silver would also look beautiful for the Holidays.
Super easy and lovely card Darlene, thank you for sharing.

PS. Instead of using the glue, how about cutting it with that sticky paper instead, just thinking this will avoid having to go and make sure this delicate dies are completely covered with glue, just my .2c

I think using the foil paper would be beautiful!

So do I and stickit on foil is a lot easier as glue shows on foil!

Hi Maria. Yes, I think the foil would look gorgeous as a holiday card! I thought about using the adhesive paper, but the problem is that it is very sticky. Once it hits the cardstock, it’s difficult to remove. With how large and delicate these die cuts are, I wasn’t confident I would hit the right spot initially, and then it would rip when I tried to reposition it. The liquid gives you some time to get it in the perfect spot. It’s been several days now, and the card is still looking very stable – the die cuts are all securely in place and aren’t popping up anywhere.

Very nice card. Love how simple it is!

I really like the color choices and the simplicity of this card. I would like to see how Maria’s foil take on this card turns out. Also wondering how coordinating pattern paper would look. Once again, a fantastic card Darlene!
