Circle and Square Slatted Dies Make Gorgeous Eclipse Cards Too!


I recently purchased the 12 x 12 Sealife Stained Glass Cardstock from Hot Off The Press at Paper Wishes and found the stained class images perfect for the eclipse cards I made for my new video here. I started with two identical pieces of the stained glass sealife with a dolphin as the focal point. I cut one with the one of the sizes of Slatted Circles in a set from Craft Addiction UK and raised it with foam adhesive strips around the edge. Then I attach it so the pattern flows from the background through the raised image. I made this one into an easel card and a sentiment from that same paper pack holds up the easel top. 


Here is a totally different way to use the Slatted Circle Die Set with patterned paper. I made it an ornament. The sentiment on this card is from Karen Burniston.


I turned one of the square slatted dies to cut a diamond before raising the top piece over an identical piece so you can see the pretty seahorse on both. The embossed background was created with a new 3D embossing folder from Spellbinders. 

I had so much fun creating these eclipse cards with new slatted shape dies I ordered from Clipper Street.com from Canada here. I will be playing again soon and then will share more ways to use these innovative dies. 

Cardmaking Joy & Hugs, Karen
