While on my eternal quest to find THE most creative projects and simultaneously the end of the internet I stumble across some truly fabulous things. I will be bringing you my finds from the WorldWideWeb and giving my ideas for how to use your AccuCut dies to either make money from them, use them in your own home or to just have fun with.
If you have a site you think I should check out, please let me know. I'd be glad to take a look and share the ideas I believe are true "Finds".
Usually I focus on the small obscure blog or website however I did stray this week and my first "Find" for you was on the Simply Stated blog for the Real Simple publication.
Find #1 - The Sequin Wall - Layering Die Cut Shapes On Walls
The idea behind this is so simple...no pun...and yet has so many possibilities. To re-create what the girls on this blog did all you need is one of our circle dies (pick your size) your favorite shiny paper and your GrandeMARK and you could re-create this wall in no time. After seeing this wall, what would you do with the same idea?
Here are a few things I would like to do with this layering technique for walls.
For a Child's Room- We've seen many people paint murals on their children's walls over the years but how fun would it be to spice that up with layering media. Think painted branches with hundreds of layered felt leaves on them in various colors to match your themes. Accent with birds cut from a thicker felt here and there. Even add a birdhouseif you're heart so desires. Adorable and easy to do! Do this for your own children's rooms and then charge to do it for others using yours as the example.
There are so many fun and unique ways to use your dies. Please share with us your ideas and how you have used your dies in different and unique ways over the years if you get a chance.
