Creative Expressions Paper Cuts Collection Heavenly Bells die. Designed by Cathie Shuttleworth, like all Paper Cuts dies this has a very intricate design. This single die is intended to cut into the edge of a piece of card so that part of the design is cut into the card and the other part is cut out of the card to create a very eye-catching effect when the cut out section has contrasting colour card underneath so that the full effect of the design can be seen. You can use patterned paper with a fairly subtle pattern, plain coloured card, or an ink blended background anything with colour that allows the cut out design to show clearly.
The design consists of a string of three, vertically hanging bells, tied with bows, the bells are surrounded by leaves, flourishes and cut out dots. This design would be perfect for making Christmas cards but as bells are so symbolic of weddings, it would work very well for wedding cards too. The die is 16.7cm long so would work very well on a larger size card base such as DL or 5 x 7 inches.
The die can be used in most leading brands of die cutting machine.
