As I’ve said before, I really LOVE the new Circle Card Thinlits Die! I just made this easy card using it and the stamp set  For the Birds, one of those good, all-purpose stamp sets. I used some flowers from the Betsy’s Blossoms stamp set to add some interest to the plain card stock and on the greeting on the inside. I also added some Gingham Garden Washi Tape along the edges of the card.  Washi tape is so much fun and easy to use!  Just tear it off and then trim it with your Paper Snips.  I even pulled one piece off and tried a different Washi tape and then decided to stick with the flowery one and put it back on.  It’s repositionable!  The Early Espresso circle is punched with the 2 1/2″ Circle Punch, a perfect fit for the circle on this card. The stamped image is cut out with the scallop circle that comes with the Thinlits Die.  That’s another great thing with the Thinlits Dies is that they both come with extra elements to use in your designs!

Be sure to watch the Stampin’ Up! video about using the Thinlits Dies on the store page!

Here is the inside of the card!

The most difficult thing about this type of card is photographing it! Since it doesn’t lay perfectly flat it comes out looking odd-shaped and standing it up also makes for an odd angle.  But I assure you you will enjoy using either one of the thinlits designs. I will warn you, it will make a HORRIBLE noise going through your Big Shot!  But that is normal.

Oh, and in case you need a Big Shot, be sure to order one of those too.  Another decision you won’t regret!!
