Bigger Dies=Bigger Possibilities

By: Traci Armbrust

I had many store owners and designers approach me at CHA (Craft and Hobby Association Show) about how excited they were about Bazzill introducing 24" x 12" paper. AccuCut Crafts offers Bags, Boxes and stationery pockets/envelopes that require larger than 12" x 12" paper.  Now the shapes that you might have shied away from can be easily cut using these popular papers.

Box #18 measures a wonderful 7 3/8" high

Bag-Tuck & Close #2 is also a stylish larger bag that measures 11" high

A7 Pocket Card #2,is the perfect large pocket for elegant wedding invitations. This card folds into an A7 (5" x 7") but you need the slightly larger paper to have that fabulous fold over flap.

This is one of my favorite envelopes, Envelope-A7 #2 .The rounded flap requires you to have larger than 12" x 12" paper. But it is so worth it. I created this envelope out of 15" x 18" paper from The Paper Cut and used fabric for the liner

So don't be afraid to use these big beautiful shapes. The possibilities are endless and now easy as ever to design with.  Just remember the bigger the box, the bigger the gift!

New Dies Are Online!

By: Traci Armbrust

All 19 new dies are up and on line, ready for you to order!!! I wanted to share with you some of my personal favorites that I didn't previously sneak peek before the CHA show.

Album 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" (2-Die set). This project also has the Blossoms (3-D) on it and our new Vintage 1" Alphabert

I love this album because you can use those fabulous 6" x 6" paper packs, except on the pocket page which you would need a larger piece of coordinating cardstock to use.

I also adore these MIni Cards-Apron & Cupcake, which were inspired by larger vesions of the same cards.

These are great for tags attached to food inspired gifts, or as interactive inserts inside albums and on scrapbook pages. Wouldn't they be adorbale attached to the front or inside greeting cards. Oh, I could go on and on but anyway you slice it, these are a must have.



Just one more of my favorites the Box-House #3 comes in two sizes and are perfect for favors or little villages at Christmas time.

You can decorate the houses with two different choices of doors, add a roof and windows and viola! You've got yourself the cutest little houses ever!
