Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month Hop




Good morning!!  Welcome to our inaugural blog hop of the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month.  Today we're here to pump you up with some inspiration for the many ways and many colors to use the Die of the Month as well as to give you the skinny on the club.  Stay tuned until the end of the post when I'll point you to the next inspiration stop in our blog hop.

What is the Die of the Month?
The Die of the Month is an exclusive die, crème de la crème, designed by Becca Feeken that are unlike previous collections.  These are the special ones, the ones that have waited for a special occasion!  What better way than to take you on a year-long ride of pleasant surprises!

Where is the Die of the Month available?
The Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month is available through Spellbinders.  You can buy it -------> HERE.

How much is the Die of the Month?
It's a large die and subscription to the club is $30.00 per month and includes US Shipping.

What's so special about the Die of the Month?
These are dies designed by Becca that are chock full of extra rims and options so that you have a huge amount of flexibility in creating more than one creation from the same set.  It's exclusive and limited, so you won't see it anywhere else and it's available until the subscription quantities are gone.

When is the Die of Month available?
The die of the month is available on the first of every month in quantities to cover subscriptions.  When it is gone, it's gone :-)

Why have a Die of the Month?When most of Becca's dies come out they are themed collections of 12 to 14 dies.  These are the dies that are more specialized that she didn't want to build an entire collection around - they are definitely Becca's style but she's built extra functionality and thought into these sets.  You all have spoken loud and clear to say that you have a monthly budget and that you want Becca dies all year long without breaking the bank.  Well, here you go.  Don't worry, collections are not going away but streaming them out on a monthly basis you'll see one once a month and they are delightful on the budget.

Here's My Die of the Month Make:

This month's die is called  "Christmas Village Vignette Frame Die".  If you look closely you'll notice that it looks a whole lot like the popular 3D Vignette Grand Cabinet.  That's no accident - Becca likes to make things that work together and add value to what's already in your stash.  No worries though, you don't have to have 3D Vignettes to use this die. 


 For my project i decided to create a decorative box that i could fill with little cards to put Holiday pictures and gift cards for a special person in my family.  I used traditional holiday colors and made sure that each of the colors in the different levels of the piece coordinated just right.


To make my box i measured across the bottom of the finished die and then created a short and narrow paper box that was the same width as the die so that i could attach one on both the front and back like you see above.  I made sure that i added a cute holly paper to the box first before the die so it would add another layer.  And for the front i used this adorable red plaid and gold mat cardstock to cut the center piece.   It gave it a pretty holiday feel without being too fussy.  I kept mine simple but there are lots of other fun pieces in the set that you can use to add on the little cards if you want and i think i will go back and make a few of them up with the trees and houses later.




For the cards i measured inside the box and just under the corner of the die front.  Then i doubled it to make folding cards and decorated them with pieces of the die and pretty papers.  You could also make little pockets inside for the gift cards if you had time.

This was such a fun project to make and I hope you get your order in quick so you can make some fun projects with yours for Christmas this year too!!

And we have lots more ideas to share on the hop so be sure and check out everyone blogs, they are really amazing and very special! Have a wonderful weekend and thank you so much for hopping with us.

  8. Teresa, I love your cards especially your use of gems. They seem to give a festive look into the card. Especially love the card with the red and green gems and branch made to look like a deer. Very inventive.
