 Hi stampers! Welcome to Watch It Weekly Wednesday. I'm Jill and I'm here to show you a card idea that I came up with. I came up with this card idea. I used these wonderful patchwork pieces dies. There's two of them. They come in a set and they make this illusion right here of the starburst and also a wave idea. Let me show you how I did this. I'm going to bring in the stamping cut and emboss machine because I'm going to actually cut it out for you showing how it works. And I have the patchwork die right here and I'm going to run it through and it will cut all these pieces out so we can use them for our card. I love using a big piece of designer series paper because it, you're going to pull these apart and it really shows the design in a cool way. I went ahead and cut this out and if you notice on the center it's all connected. So what you're going to do, you can go ahead and put it right down like that but I'm going to pull these apart and I'm going to use this Tombow adhesive glue to go ahead and adhere these. And the reason why I like the Tombow is because you can actually position your pieces and kind of move them around a little bit if you don't get them the way you want. So I'm going to lay that down and just go around like clockwise and put all these pieces on. This piece of cardstock, the black cardstock is five and a eighth by three and five eighths. So and you don't really have to be exact on this I mean as far as how close they are or how far apart they are because it's going to look good once you get it all done. Now if you notice oh my goodness it's like it's too big or too small we have too much left over. Well that's why I love it. You can trim this after you're done to be able to fit the size that you want for your cardstock or the edge around it. It doesn't have to be perfect it's a star burst die and so it's really forgiving and once you put your sain on there it won't really matter one way or the other. As you notice that these are going together you'll notice there's like a hole in the center of the card. We're going to cover that up with our sain so you don't have to worry about that as far as that it's there or not there. And if you make a mistake you can cover it up with your sain so that's what I like about doing a hand stamp card with our images. Isn't this a fun way to show off your design of Sears paper especially the design that you really like you've got that space in between and it really shows it off. Okay so I went around like that and I put it together. Now I'm going to go ahead and stamp the little thank you so much. This stamp set that I'm using is called layering leaves and I like the option of being able to choose so many different sains out of this stamp set. So depending on which side that you do I'm going to move this over to the left of this card so I can cover up that little mistake that I made. So there again we have that. I'm going to go ahead and trim this on the one side and I'm going to head and glue this down and that will cover that little spot in the center too and we'll go ahead and use our ribbon to go around it. I am in love with this gingham ribbon. It's so popular right now these colors. Black is always one of my favorite colors in stamping and also in clothes. Now I'm only using this one designer series paper but I'm going to show you several cards done with two and three different designs. So we've got that layout and it goes on top here. We're going to also want to use some little bling on top of that. I'm going to show you the card. This is the finished card and you notice that I stamped on the thanks so much right here on a companion product. That's amazing. I love using companion products. Stylish shaped dies has banners, squares and it also has circles. So it goes with all these patchwork dies because it's got the little hashes or the little dots. Let me show you some other ideas used with these dies using one piece of designer series paper too that like we did. See how cool it is with that bigger layout and then this is just little. Let's go ahead and go to the two. Here's two pieces of designer series paper. So I used every other one. So when I pulled them out I just pulled out every other one and this is the one the wave. I like how these fit right up next to each other. You don't want to pull these apart because then they don't fit. They don't have because it's not a diagonal. So here's one vertically and horizontally done. I love how when you use a dark and a lighter designer series paper it really shows that wave of an image. And you can even do four pieces. This idea is done with four designer series papers. One, two, three, four and so you'll cut out four different pieces and then you'll just pull them out so you can actually make four cards with this whole thing. Just move them around, move the pieces around. I hope you enjoyed these ideas that you've seen with the patchwork pieces dies and the companion dies. The stylus shape dies. 15 dies are in this. It's amazing. And if you like these products, if you like these products, click the link below.
