Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken – Collection Introduction

My latest collection, Candlewick Sampler, is based Candlewick embroidery, a traditional form of needlework with a knotted white-on-white design. I wanted to recreate the dimension and “feel” of this art form into detailed, embossed dies perfect for any celebration.

S3-382 Candlewick Colonnade Border

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

Create a new card detail by using this die set with the tulip dot motif as a topper for a card, a border element or even as a gatefold when cut twice. The candlewick “knotted” details are ideal for adding pearl or crystal accents for a stunning card.

S4-1015 Candlewick Rosebud

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

The newest “Cinch and Go” flowers are gorgeous rosebuds. Cut, burnish and build to create dimensional detail for any card or project. The set includes a trio of embossed leaves and a “Candlewick-ed” embossed flourish.

S4-1016 Candlewick Canopy

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

I wanted to continue the tulip dot motif in this framed die set, which will turn any card front into a work of art. I envision snipping various elements from the dies to create a multitude of decorative accents.

S4-1018 Candlewick Petticoat

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

The clean, flourished lines of this set, complete with the tulip dot detail, is the epitome of what ties this entire Candlewick collection together. I envision the bracket die used to tuck the decorative die underneath (like a petticoat!) to create a laced edge that adds just the right amount of elegance to any project.

S4-1022 Candlewick Grand Pocket

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

I love pockets! To be able to slide in a layered element, memento or photo just brings a project to another level. This pocket die has a scoreline on one side and a flap on another. Cut your card panel with the die and you have and instant pocket that can be further embellished with the flower dies included in the set.

S4-1023 Candlewick Exquisite Topper

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

Is it a card belly band? A card topper? A border? Decorative element? How about all of these! The 2 outline dies allow for this set to be used as a topper or border or without the outline dies, create a die cut design on a card panel. I love the versatility!

S4-1024 Candlewick Edged Corners

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

This is another multi-purpose set of dies that have the Candlewick touches I adore. I love the use of the “split dies” that can be used together to cut out the entire shape, or use just the top outline die with the insert for a card topper or the bottom outline and insert for a border. Stack a pair of these together to create a frame. The possibilities are endless!

S5-402 Candlewick Lace Card Front

Candlewick Sampler by Becca Feeken - Collection Introduction

This design is reminiscent of a vintage Candlewick bedspread or tablecloth. The detail is so eye-catching that I had to have this as a cardfront! Imaging this cut out and layered over contrasting color, or go “old school” and create a white on white motif. The emboss and deboss elements create wonderful depth and dimension.
