Hello, crafty friends! Here is a link to a folder containing a PDF with all the Die-Cut December sketches. Feel free to download a copy for personal use: www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/fbr2yunj6c7jn2g7d6wa6/AHzU4TJVpzaqGuxOPFun8Vo?rlkey=c3dwjnygukxrkuh8ydoeditzg&st=hdjtyrv9&dl=0
I love how you show ways to stretch your dies & use them to create new things. I like both designs but am drawn to the framed clover. Thanks for giving us a video to enjoy everyday. -Sarah
I can't tell you how much I appreciate your creative mind. You do so much with simple dies and ink. Clean and simple cards are my go to. I've purchased so many stamp and matching die sets over the years and I never used them. Once I found you I donated most of the sets.
Good grief, Natalie. I won’t be surprised when you take a thank-you sentiment die, turn it upside down, inside out, and backwards and have the die cut come out looking like a fairy castle. Your ideas are amazing. Thank you again and again for keeping us inspired!
I love that you show fixes, we’ve all got splodges or marks on our cards. I quite often cannibalise cards I’ve made, the way I look at it is I’ve enjoyed making the card so I’ve had the crafting therapy so no loss. 😊
Thank you.. it is more than just helpful being shown ways to utilise whatever is in our cupboards. It saves buying more dies that may not get used again!
Natalie, those 4 leaf clovers are brilliant. Hearts for clovers, didn't think about it that way. I really am so dense 😅 Love the cards and thank you very much for sharing ☘️☘️☘️
Super cards, Natalie. Love how you have made something you never had, with something that most of us do have! I never have those 'aha' moments, thankfully you do! xx
Months ago I bought a cheap due at the dollar store. It's a 3-pronged curly cue for a corner. I wanted snowflakes. 2 of those, cut each of the 3 prongs apart and attached to the back of a small circle, all of iridescent cardstock -- voila! Snowflakes 😊💛
Great idea for a clover! I'm going to have to practice using a black pen to outline die cuts. I know it's meant to be loose and wonky, but I can't seem to override my urge to make it perfect. 🤣 I'm so impressed with the huge number of different occasions you're covering this month! There's something for everyone and we all love it! 🩷
I was never able to get decent stamps using dies and foam until I was told you cannot run them through the die cutter machine more than once (I always did at least back and forth when die cutting). That was exactly the tip I need to get rid of ragged edges. Your foam stamps are perfect!
Thank you for all of these lovely tips, hints, and ideas. Have you, by chance, discovered a way to remove some of the interior lines and “dots” left from the die’s imprint? I don’t mind them, but would certainly like to learn some tips on perhaps minimizing the effect, if possible. Thanks again!
If the dots bother me, I gently burnish them out with my finger nail or bone folder. You could try putting the die-cuts between two pieces of card and then running them through your die-cutting machine to squish them down. x

LOL! Thanks, Marguerite. :)
Love how you fix your mistakes. We all make them but don't always know how to cover them up. Fab cards again. Thanks you. 🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
Natalie, Just so creative!! I love that you show how to make the most of our supplies!! You are the best!!

Thank you. It is so great to watch you teach on a very cold snowy day! Great way to make a stamp using foam. Thanks.
You are so welcome!

Absolutely! Thank you! :)

Good mornimg Natalie. I love this idea. I don't imagine there are too many of us who have a shamrock die. What a great card. Thanks so much. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching! ❤️
I've never made my own stamp with a die that's ingenious. 🎉 I have die cut and used it as a stencil 😮
Thanks for sharing! x
I love how you do your whimsical lines. I am a recovering perfectionist so that it will be therapy for me! Hahaha! 😂😅😊
:) Thanks for watching. x
I would like to meet you. I love every card you have made. I feel like we have the same style. Please don't stop! Thanks
Thank you so much!
Wonderful idea and card. Thanks Natalie.

Very interesting and a good reason to not bother buying a clover die or stamp if you wouldn't be using it much. Thanks for the ideas.

try running it through to emboss in your die cutter to flatten those dots.

Good idea!
