The August-December Mini Catalog from Stampin’ Up! does NOT contain just holiday products. On p. 63, you’ll find a real treasure – the Deckled Circles Dies are going to be a staple in many craft rooms. There are so many of them, you can find one for any sized circle you’re looking for! Just look at them all!
Not only can you create deckled circles for sentiments and other purposes, you can actually make a CARD out of the circles dies! Thanks to Mary Fish for the inspiration!
Start with a piece of cardstock, cut at 5 1/2″ by 11″ and scored at 5 1/2″, so it’s a square card. You must obviously leave a fold portion as you cut with a circle die, so take a deckled circles die that’s almost as big as the square. Center the Circles Die over the square, and then pull it back so the FOLD side of the card is slightly inside the circle die, so about two inches of the fold will NOT get cut by the circle die. This will leave you with a folded side.
I then cut a smaller Deckled Circle die of Garden Walk DSP and adhered it to the card front.
I also cut a Basic White circle layer for the inside of the card. Now you will just decorate as you wish! I heat embossed the sentiment from Layering Leaves stamp set onto Pecan Pie cardstock. I used the bough punch to punch out various leaves to tuck underneath the sentiment, and then cut a strip of coordinating Garden Walk DSP. Isn’t it pretty?
A circle-shaped card is so fun! Try one! All the products I used can be found below. Just click on a product to start shopping with me.
