Stretch Those Cover Dies

Hello friends!

As a crafter, we love to use what we have and of course, we lust for items that we do not already own.

We also pay attention to what we purchase (well, at least we try...). 😄

Cover Dies are one of the most expensive kind of dies that there is on the market. 

It really is good to have many ways of using Cover Dies since it will likely never break (bonus)!  The more you use the covcer dies, the more you save... well, not quite, but you get the idea. 😀😁

 My card today is one of those "small things" that I am attempting. I thought of the extra ways to add textures and colors with the Ornate Cover Die.  I am using Simply The Best Stamp Set for this design.



As you can see, I added the largest petal with the Ornate Cover Die (inked with the same colors as the flowers). I also incorporated the the cover die into the small flower center. This way, the flowers look more cohesive and complete.



 Believe it or not, there are more ways in using cover dies. I have more to share in the coming weeks. Please stay tuned. I hope my exercise in using the Ornate Cover Die sparks your creativity !


edited: I colored the cover die with Gelli Plate first and then die cut the flower together and ran them both through the die cut machine. This would ensure the flower and cover die cut exactly like they should.
