Stampin Up Polka Dot Love Card

Stampin Up Polka Dot Love 1Hey there! Getting Katrina ready for school has been taking a lot of my time lately. She starts in a few days, so we’ve been getting all the school supplies and outfits ready, and I’m excited for her to be back in her school routine so I can begin my fall routine as well! I think you’re going to love this new Thinlits set from Stampin’ Up, called Expressions. The set comes with three words in a cute cursive script; love, merry, and thankful. See the photo at the bottom of this post for what the dies look like. There are two tips that will help a lot when using these super fine die cut images. First, the die will release the cut paper SO much easier if you put a layer of waxed paper between the card stock and the die.

Thinlits tip 1

Then once the image is cut out, take a very sharp tool, such as the Paper-Piercing Tool, to push through the little holes on the backside. This will make the word pop easily out of the die.

Thinlits tip 2

Finally, peel the waxed paper off the word, and you’re ready to add it to your project.

Thinlits tip 3

Use Tombow Mono Multi Glue for attaching these words, a super thin line along the back, or little dots here and there are all it takes. This card could be for Valentine’s Day, a birthday, or any occasion for someone you love. The brown color scheme makes it suitable for anyone, man or woman. I hope you enjoyed this one, and thanks for stopping by!
