Alter An Intricate Die

 Hello friends!

I hope this post finds you well. I am popping in with a post about altering the look of an intricate die. The Twigtastic Die is used as my example. 

I love the look of this intricate die. However, I find it a tad short for my liking since I love making top-folding card. To change it up, I die cut two pieces of dies and stacked them over.

I then stamped the BAF Coral Louise Peony flower and popped it over it.  I decide to stamped just the two layered of inks and kept the image simple. 

Notice the flower and background are in matching colors?  I used Gel Plate with the same ink colors (for the flower) to create the background. 

 

Note: do not be intimidated by Gel Plate. It is such a great and fun tool tool to ink up your paper. Plus, you can use it with many other printing/stenciling techniques.

Today's Take-away: look at your dies and change it up. You can add, extend/shorten the length, stack or use parts of the dies. I hope you like today's share. Here is another example with the same die. I used is as a stencil, too!  

Thank you for stopping by!
