{ Digital Die Lines + Stamps = Layered Happiness }

If you enjoy adding a little dimension to your projects, then we have good news for you!

Technique Tuesday  now offers digital die lines, and we just rolled our first 12 sets of them.

When you purchase Technique Tuesday digital die lines, you will receive a zip file that includes the die lines in three file formats (ai, svg, and dxf) so the die lines will work with most of the popular digital die cutting machines.

You can learn more about the digital die lines in the frequently asked questions section of our website.

We're sharing some projects made with them on our Technique Tuesday blog and will be sharing more.

Here is a card I created with this stamp set – Howdy and coordinating dies. I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut all the elements.

Thanks by Daniela Dobson


(Re)Introducing Irony

Ten years of Technique Tuesday means a year-long party!

And to celebrate the anniversary, we are bringing back some of our popular products from the past throughout 2013. (So far, we've brought back Adored by Ali Edwards, Hash Tags & More, and Petal Power.) You can see my Petal Power post here.

And we are happy to share with you the latest addition (or re-introduction) to our line-up: Irony.

My card.

Memories by Daniela Dobson

I don’t know if you can see, but I used a grid paper, it has faint lines on white cardstock (old Papertrey Ink) . I stamped the images to create my own background paper.

{ Scrapbook Circle April kit–Happy Place }

I haven’t shared any of my projects created with this bright and cheerful kit – Happy Place. This kit is filled with all new items from Echo Park, Crate Paper, Heidi Swapp, Amy Tangerine…

Favorite photos by Daniela Dobson

This second one I created for a challenge called “take two”.  I used one of my older layouts to create this new one (see below).

You are my sunshine by Daniela Dobson

In this new layout (Happy Place April kit), I repeated one large photo, except, this time, I moved it to the left. I matted the photo with a strip of yellow patterned paper and added a die cut title. I loved various strips from the original layout so I added strips to my new one. I used the design from patterned paper and followed the curve. In addition, I repeated the hearts and stars from the original layout.

These two layouts are totally different, yet they use some of the same elements.

My view  Daniela Dobson

I have two more layouts that I will share as I share them on the Scrapbook Circle blog. May kit is on the way to my house and you will love it!!!

Have a great Friday!

Thank you by Daniela Dobson

  I inked the Cover-a-card Wood Grain with Canary ink, darker on the bottom and lighter towards the top and stamped it on white cardstock.
Full Bloom Hollyhocks stamp is sprayed with Tropicana Teal Color Shine and stamped on white cardstock and cut out.
I die cut the butterflies from patterned paper using Butterfly Set Die. I added little enamel dots from My Mind’s Eye to the center. At the end I sprinkled little Primrose Color Shine over the top.
The sentiment is stamped on white cardstock and cut out. I adhered it to the card with 3D Foam Squares
