Tonight I am participating in a blog hop along with other ladies from the Art With Heart Team. We are all showing you out favourite bundles from the 2017 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. Bundles make creating a breeze, because of the perfect coordination. It's a bonus that you get 10% off by bundling the products together too. There are 24 bundles in the catalogue so ask us about them, or for a catalogue today!
You may have come to my blog from Monika O'Neill. Blog hops are full circles, so start blog hopping here and and the end of my post (and everyone else's) there is a link to the next post. I've also got a list of all 15 blog hop participants at the end in case of broken links.
I am focusing on the oh so eclectic bundle from page 133 of the catalogue.
The diamond shaped framelit is my favourite and I loved using it on the outside and the inside of my card tonight. Otherwise my card is almost a complete CASE from the catalogue. I couldn't help it, I loved the design and had to tweak it a little to make it more me. I even added some seed beads to the centres of my diamonds for a little bit of added extra bling.

Tip for adhering the leftover diamond pieces. Create yourself a template out of cardstock and store it with the dies. It helps you line the diamond shapes up perfectly and holds them in place while the adhesive dries.

I love the idea of storing a template with your dies. It's there when you need it. What a way to utilize your cut out pieces. Way to go girlfriend!
