I used the wondeful FILIGREE MESSAGE ROUNDED RECTANGLE Die for my two cards today as a background, but in different ways. The focal points such as the flower and the fairy as well as the sentiments are all from the FAIRYTALE SPINNERS stamp set.

  3. Super cards. I love that lovely filigree die. And that fairy is just precious. Thanks for the great inspiration and video.

  4. Beautiful cards. I really love that Filigree Message die. It adds such a delightful background. Both cards are lovely, but I think the flower is my favourite.

  5. Great cards! Thanks for showing different ways to use that filigree die. I love the glitter idea and cutting it apart to add a bigger sentiment.

  6. I always enjoy watching your videos . Your cards are gorgeous and this is an awesome release.

  7. Vicky, I love fairies as they are a part of my heritage, but I have resisted buying most fairy stamp sets as they are a bit to “cutsey.” This one is just about OK, but you have made it irresistible! I love your cards!

  8. Beautiful cards and beautiful stamps and dies. Even your mistakes turn out lovely! I learn so much from your videos and the products you use never disappoint. Thank you!

    darling. Great cards. thanks for
    sharing. txmlhl(at)yahoo(dot)com

  13. Oh My Goodness! The sparkles – so fabulous. I absolutely love that filigree die. I have the circle one already from a previous release, and I think I may have to try this glitter technique asap!

  14. Pretty cards Vicky. Boo boos are part of our creative process. There is always something we can do to fix it?. Love how you painted that fairy!!!

  15. It takes skill to smudge ink where a pearl or a jewel will accent the card perfectly. Well done!
    Both cards are beautiful.

  16. I love the “don’t stop believing”. The song is now stuck in my head lol love that fairy stamp set!

  17. You created two beautiful cards with this die! Great idea to use tape on the back of the die cut to adhere the glitter!

  18. Really pretty cards. The Filigree Round Rectangle is one of the new SSS release items that I am interested in getting. I like how you cut it apart to allow for a larger message sentiment and love the ink blended background.

  19. This a great new release from SSS and I love what you did with that die – very inspiring. I also can’t get that Journey song out of my head now… but it is a great song 🙂

  20. Two lovely cards, Vicky! Your video was very nice and I like the way you covered your “boo-boo”!

  21. I am loving this release and seeing all the beautiful cards being made. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.

  22. I wasn’t sure how the filigree die would be used when I first saw it in the release. I’ll have to give your technique with the glitter a try as the outcome is stunning.

  30. Love the different fairy options. Very cute/pretty cards. Love filling in the holes with the glitter. For a minute I thought you were going to piece the whole thing with colored pieces. That would have been too much for me! Glitter I can do.

  31. Vicky, I love both cards, but my favorite has to be the fairy! Thanks for giving me inspiration to make more fairy cards! You are the best! Thanks for making videos! As you know, a lot of people don’t make them any more! And, I really love yours!
