I think this Momenta die set is fabulous. The set is called, "Geometric Layered Border Dies" a set of 2 dies that when layered make a beautiful border that fits an A2 size card.
This die cuts a piece that is approximately 5 1/2" x 1 1/4", perfect for a landscape card (top folding). I took some strips of white cardstock I had and ink blended lines on them. You don't have to do that, you could just take 2 different colors of cardstock and diecut each die, layer them and have an equally beautiful card.
Here's a photo of the 2 dies I used, one on white cardstock, the other with the ink cardstock.
Here's what it would look like with solid colored cardstock.
Same pieces just layered differently. I didn't end up making this card, I really liked the ink blended cards.
After I diecut the inked piece and adhered it to the white piece, I decided to make a cute set of cards. I took a white A2 notecard (4.25" x 5.5") and put the HELLO sentiment on my stamp platform, I placed down the diecut just to see where I wanted the HELLO to go, then inked the sentiment with ink that matched my diecut. I stamped the sentiment on 3 cards, then attached the diecuts with glue.
I cut colored cardstock slightly larger than the white notecards and adhered the notecards to the cardstock. I like how the colored mats highlight the colors of ink.
I'll be posting a Reel on Instagram @susanbcards if you'd like to see a quick video of how I inked blended the strips of cardstock.
These cards were fun and easy to make. I love the idea of making sets of cards to give away.
You can find this die set at Hobby Lobby!
Thanks for looking!
