Today I have the beautiful Sew Crafty Showcase CYBER WEEK launch from Tonic Studios to share with you. This is a fabulous big die set containing 40 dies and a paper pack with double sided paper (200gsm) a stamp set and a stencil...all in a plastic wallet!
You can use the dies to make a lovely spool/bobbin shaped gift box and this can be made longer by elongating the die cuts or joining 2 together if you like.
I have used the paper pack along with the dies to make a cute little spool and then I used the papers, dies and stamps to create one card and the stencil and dies and paper to make another.
You can buy the Sew Crafty Showcase here(affiliate links)
As usual I have tried to incorporate some other dies and also tried to show you a different way of using this set too.
I'd love to know what you think of this :) so please leave me a little comment to let me know :)
I've made a medium sized book (13cm x 13.5cm x 4cm) with a little flip element inside and lots of tags etc but I also made a 7x7 card which would be ideal for a family Christmas card as it opens up to show 7 photos inside.

Hello :) Today I have the beautiful Hexagon and Diamond Tiles die and stamp set to share with you! This beautiful set is one of Tonic's Cyber week launches and can be used in sooo many ways !I hope you enjoy watching what I've done with it in this video to make 3 completely different cards and a bookmark :)
This fabulous 69 piece die set, the Botanical Burst Box Collection, is part of Tonic's Cyber week launches and it's easier to show you than to describe! The dies have been designed to make 2 differently shaped boxes but there are so many of them which can also be used for card making, scrapbooking etc. Just have a look and you'll see what I mean.
I made some chicken, stuffing and cranberry sandwiches and a couple of egg mayonnaise sandwiches and we packed them up along with a flask of tea and a couple of oatmeal biscuits and headed into the Glens of Antrim to enjoy the peace and quiet.
I hope you can take time to do this from time to time....it's so good for you!
Nothing fancy, just a few simple sandwiches and a quiet spot on the roadside up in the hills.
Thanks so much for watching. I'm sure my next video will be back indoors :)
Don't forget to subscribe and hit the notification bell.
I'd love you to leave a little comment and let me know where you'd like to have a picnic :)
This is the Good Vibes Stamp Club from Tonic Studios (number 26 , if you're counting!).It's got a really 80's retro feel to it and is so much fun to use. Just look at the images (stamps or dies ) and you know it's got to be colourful! I choose colours from the Rubiks cube and used those for both cards. The set needs no real explanation and is very straightforward to use - perfect for making quick and cheerful cards which are sure to make the recipient smile!
You can see how to make these 2 cards ion my video here -
This fabulous 49
piece Showcase die set makes 3 different sizes of elegant vases. It contains dies
which make the sides for each side and also a square, hexagonal and octagonal
base and matching lid.
There are full instructions
inside the die set and I’d advise you to have a look first and identify the
pieces which you’ll need for whatever shape of vase you are going to make 😊
In this blog post tutorial I’ll be showing you how to make
the middle size with 6 sides but you can also see how to make the 4 sided vase
and the 8 sided vase in my video here -
To make this you
will need the following Tonic Studios products
1. Die cut 3 of the main die pieces for the sides.
2. Using the dies in the photo, die cut the patterned panels from Coffee Cream card and glue to the ivory pieces.
3. Die cut the narrow rectangles for the centres and glue in place.
4. Glue all the pieces together by the little centre glue tabs.
5. Glue the side tabs
at the bottom together but leave the top parts at the moment.
6. Die cut 2 of the
base side panels from ivory card and snip one in half.
7. Die cut 6 of the little
decorative panels, glue in place and glue the 2 strips together.
8. Glue together to
form a hexagon.
9. Die cut 4 of the
hexagons which are the same size as the lid. Glue one into the inside of the
hexagon.
10. Glue another on
top to close the little base.
11. Glue a 3rd
on the outside edge to cover the glue tabs.
12. Glue the 4th
one down inside the open base of the vase.
13. Now glue the vase
to the base.
14. It should now
look like this.
15. You can now glue
the top side glue tabs together the whole way around and also the little tabs
at the top. It may help to hols these in place with tiny pegs while the glue
adheres.
16. Die cut 3 of the
Lid Lower Tier Side Panels and 6 corresponding decorative panels. Glue on the
little panels and then glue the panels together in the same way as for the base.
17. Die cut 2 of the Lower
Tier tops and glue one hexagon into the lid.
18. Glue the other
lid hexagon on top to cover the glue tabs.
19. Die cut 2 patterned
panels to decorate the lid and glue in place. Then die cut 3 of the small lid
top tier side panel pieces and glue together in the same way as the base. Using
the tiny dies shown in the photo at the top right, die cut pieces for the top
and bottom of this top tier.
20. Glue these pieces
together to create a little button/knob for the top of the lid and glue in
place.
