Die Cut Scraps Cards + Giveaway

Hello! Today I am sharing ideas for using die cut scraps on cards. I focus on using background and border dies… and also share several slimline card designs.

[If the video is not visible, please head HERE to YouTube to watch. All supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this post. Compensated affiliate links may be used at no cost to you. I appreciate your support so very much!]

I cover quite a bit of info in this video, so be sure to watch it! I share ideas for stretching your dies… and creating long and narrow cards. I hope it is helpful!

Keep in mind, dimensions for “slimline cards” (long and narrow cards) can vary between companies. Pinkfresh Studio based their dies (which I use in this video) off a traditional slimline envelope, which is 3 7/8″ x 8 7/8″. The card dimension would be 3 5/8″ x 8 5/8″. I roughly followed these dimensions, but all would fit in a business envelope.

Here are the cards from my video along with the main products featured. For the full supply list, scroll down to the thumbnails at the end of this post.

  1. This is such an awesome release! It is going to be tons of fun! Thank you SO MUCH for your awesome examples and tips – you really help a lot!

  2. First of all, Jennifer, these are all such GORGEOUS CARDS!!! I am totally in love with what you have done with these products!! You always blow my mind with your amazing creativity!! I am so excited every time you come out with a new video as I know it will teach me so much & amaze me all the same, each & every time!! Love your crafty way!! Next, of course these awesome products are FANTASTIC!!! My absolute favorite is those KIND FRIEND alphabet dies!!! THEY ARE SOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! I also really love the border die used on that card as well with the rings or circles linked together!! Again, this release & what you did with them inspire me sooo very much!! Haha sorry so many “!!”, I just realized I have used ALOT!! Haha oops but I am excited! 😉 Thank you for the opportunity to win & wish me luck!! (One more for good luck!! Haha) 😉

  3. Jennifer first I’d like to say that your YouTube videos are an absolute blessing to me. They spark creativity for me and they are my first go to when I schedule time for myself. Second I would like to say YIPPEE because I have been waiting for a company to come out with a line of dies for this size of card. I love this size for a great variety and a great change up to the usual A2 card or the 5×7 card as well. In the past I have caught your videos perhaps a day or two late and when I go to order the products they’re all sold out. However, this time I jumped right on it and got three of the die sets for the slim design cards from Pink Fresh studios. I’m so excited to get these especially during this time of being quarantined. They are going to provide great inspiration and bonding time with my daughters. Again I appreciate what you do everyday and for the amazing creativity both you and the craft companies present for us crafters. God bless you all and I pray that He keeps you and your family safe and healthy.

  4. I think that you should send the last card to yourself, because YOU are AMAZING. I can’t believe the thought and care (not to mention the time) that you selflessly are putting in to sending out all the cards that you are doing at this time. Plus, the time spent making and editing the videos to share with all of us. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

  5. Great cards once again – love the size! I’m making cards to send to some special elderly folks who live alone and hoping it will brighten their days. At least I’m not alone 24/7 like they are right now.

  6. Oh my heart, Jennifer. I’m smitten with your sweet cards. Pinkfresh has done it again with the most amazing dies. Thanks for the inspiration and for sharing your talents.
    Blessings,
    karen Letchworth
