Presscut Art Deco Dies for Crafts-Too and John Next Door

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I hope you are having a good weekend. Having seen my parents last week there has been a lot to sort out. I have manged to fit in a little crafting. My A4 die cutting machine finally gave up on Friday. I am working on getting a replacement. I do have the Kaleido but I need an A4 machine for bigger dies. My hubby is being very supportive. I am sure something will be sorted soon. 

Here are the cards and other bits I made with the Presscut Deco dies that are being released by John Next Door on the Craft Store at 6.00 pm today. 


I do like extending the use of the dies I am given. This is a shaker card with some butterflies in the centre. 


Often when I have the coloured card out for one card another card will suggest itself. This time I have made a square card with a rectangular die. This time I made flower with the Small Flowers die. 


I think this is my favourite card. I just love the colours and the way the die work. I added  flowers made with the Periwinkle die. I used an off cut from the background paper. The sentiments I used came from the Deco Butterflies die set. 


I love making boxes. The acetate I used in this one came from packaging and has gold dots on it. When I had made the box I went out to buy the chocolates to go in it. The colours were just perfect. I added another Periwinkle flower. 


Here is a gift bag with more Periwinkle flowers. 


This was a fun set of dies to use. Look out for them in other makes. I am sure I will be using them a lot. 

Enjoy the rest of the weekend. I have two weeks of invigilating coming up. 

Happy Crafting
