Savannah O'Gwynn here, and for my video today, I share a tip that I've used on three different cards. Recently I've come up with a way to make some of the detailed Paper Smooches die cut images and sentiments POP!!!
Here's the video:
Here are some pictures of my finished cards using die cut foam tape:

Awesome technique, Savannah!!! I'm gonna have to give it a try! :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to try this - it appears tricky! I have always just glued layers of the word together......this looks much neater. As always, thanks for the technique tip!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the clever tip and video, Savannah! Your videos are always a treat to watch!
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT tip Savannah and thanks for the video. Hope you're feeling better soon :)
ReplyDelete*sigh* these are soooooooo gorgeous!!!! I love love love the colors!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous cards, and your die-cutting technique has me dazzled! LOVE what you've shared; brilliant and so much easier than cutting multiples of the die. Question: what kind of tape did you use,please? I need to shop!! Hope you're feeling better! Hugs!

Just how do you come up with all of these amazing ideas?!! I'm blown away every time! And the cards for this week made my heart flip flop (a few times) - they are so awesome!!! I can't try this technique just now though...can you believe I STILL don't have a die cutting machine! Thanks, as always, for sharing, and I hope you are feeling a whole lot better!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat video Savannah...and awesome cards...can you believe I do not have any of these dies...I should probably get myself some :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely amazing!! How did I not think of that!!! So clever!!! Thank you for sharing! And your cards...ack!! I LOVE them!!!so much!! (And I hope you're feeling better!!!!!)
ReplyDeleteThis is an absolutely BRILLIANT idea Savannah! Thanks so much for the tutorial and I hope that you are feeling better!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that you did this video with strep throat! You are amazing! Great tip...I'll be using it soon for sure! Thanks for the inspiration and I hope you are better now!
ReplyDeleteG-e-n-i-o-u-s!!! Thanks for sharing the idea and what doesn't work so well. I am just shaking my head that I have not tried this before - cutting miniscule slivers of tape to fit the shapes is just way more work!
