Dies R Us: Creative Expressions Chevron Card Accents

Creative Expressions Chevron Card Accents

Hi Friends! Kristina here today with some super quick and simple cards, that look more complicated then they are thanks to some fun accent dies from Creative Expressions. I love this die collection which comes with multiple options to add that little extra detail to your card making ( they'd make great banner pieces too! ). Each design comes two ways, an inward and outward pointing fishtail end.

To put the cards together I adhered an a2 sized piece of patterned paper down to an a2 top fold card as a base. I choose a piece of coordinating colored card stock, cut it to the same size, and ran it through an embossing folder for texture. Instead of stamping I went with some sentiment images from a card kit and mounted them onto some glitter card stock before adhering down to the top 3rd of my solid card stock panel. From here I used the fun chevron dies from Creative Expression to cut off the bottom portion of the panel, so that when glued down to the base, the patterned paper I adhered earlier gets to show through.

This example shows a variation of the dies with a more inward pointing arrow or fishtail

This shows the outward more arrow-like edge. I think these would also look great vertically with patterned or glitter paper peeking out the side.

Thank you for stopping by today! If you want to snag this die set for yourself I've got it linked below!
