    3D Vignettes | From 3D to Flat & Fabulous

    February 24, 2018 / 8 Comments

    3D Vignettes is meant to be dimensional but there’s no rule saying you can’t go from 3D to Flat and Fabulous!  Hi there friends,  I’m Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace  – I designed the 3D Vignettes Collection and today I want to show you a background I created from taking two panels, snipping them and building them around a focal point. It’s always a delight to take a die meant for one thing and to use it for another.  That’s the hook that makes me want to add it to my stash. If I know I can get extra uses from it, then it’s a good bet!  The filigree detail on the…

    Let’s Get Squared Up – From Rectangle to Square Card

    January 20, 2018 / 14 Comments

    I always want to get the most out of my die templates, so I thought about taking a large rectangle card front and squaring it up to give it a different look.   I’m Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace and my card today takes a simple rectangle die, cuts it up and reassembles it as a square card.  By doing that, I’ve kept my favorite parts of the die and have created a new look in the process. Last year one of the dies I introduced was the S6-112 Graceful Frame Maker.  This die takes a panel of paper and miters it into four identical pieces.   You want to do this with a symmetrical…

    Spring Flowers, April Showers

    January 6, 2018 / 6 Comments

    If you’re like me, I’m finding myself thankful to be putting away the Christmas Paper while reaching for something that harkens spring.  I’m Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace  and spring is on my mind.    Indeed, Spring Flowers, April Showers!  A touch of vintage paper, lace and flowers was enough to get me dreaming of flower gardens beginning to bloom. For my card today I started with a 5 1/2″ x 7 – 1/2 base out of cream – this is my favorite size of card.  I assemble the base from one 8-1/2″ x 11″ sheet of cardstock cut in half at 5 -1/2″.  On one of the panels I score and…

    Creating a Paper Flower Arrangement with Contour Dies

    Hi friends! So glad you’ve stopped by. I’m so excited to show you what I’ve been working on! If you remember last year I launched my first collection called “Quite Contrary”, a floral die line consisting of contour dies. It’s been a while since I have made a project with them so I thought today I would show you what I’ve been creating.   I absolutely love flower arranging. And these flowers, they aren’t temperamental. They do well in the heat or the cold. The best part is they are rather simple to make. I am going to walk you through it step by step so you can make the…
