FLIP – Crafter’s Companion Box 12 – Stamps & Dies

This is such a fun kit! The dies are pretty unique to anything I have in my stash. They actually do a partial die cut and there are several different sizes in butterflies and flowers. The butterflies just cut the wings but leave the body attached to the card. The flowers also have some extra dimension that’s created with some partial die-cutting.… Read the rest

FLIP – Crafter’s Companion Craft Box #28 – Character-Over-The-Edge

I was so excited to dive into this kit. I have a few other boxes I haven’t even opened, but I wanted to get straight into this box because I had been eyeing the “character-over-the-edge” dies for a while now. And I love them all so it’s so hard to just get one or two — I want them ALL!

One thing that makes this particular kit stand out for me is that it includes so many different card blank styles!… Read the rest

F.L.I.P. of Crafter’s Companion Box Kit #23 – Floral Decoupage

I actually haven’t done much decoupaging where you line up multiple layers of the same image to build up dimension. I was looking forward to this kit for that reason. What’s really cool is that this kit not only comes with pre-printed decoupage sheets but it also comes with a stamp set that allows you to stamp and color more images.… Read the rest
