Greetings my crafty and creative friends. I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend, even during quarantine :)
I apologize that this post is so late. I wanted to follow-up my YouTube video with a post that can really show the pictures on this card because it is truly super fun to look at! In this video I show what it looks like to use ALL 20 layering dies, from the Waffle Flower A7 layering die set. (A7 = 5" x 7" ...think a 5x7 photograph).
This is my first time buying one of the Waffle Flower layering dies, and boy oh boy oh boy was I having fun. I have found myself making lots more A7 cards recently as many of my custom card requests are for cards larger than A2 size.
Most of the card seen in the store are A7 sized, so I get it. But I have found that not many supplies are geared towar
ds this larger card. So I was over the moon to be able to purchase this Waffle Flower set that is designed specifically for these card dimensions.
I ended up using 18 differenct colors (including black and white) to create this deliciously colorful 20 layer card.
I topped it off with a simple "hi" die cut from Concord & 9th, stacked 3 or 4 times, and some sequins I recently got from The Stamp Market.
Please see the supplies list below, and I really hope this inspires you to get some layering dies or use the ones you already have to create something fun.
