Here are the new dies I introduced: Sku Name S5-076 Tea Service MSRP: $24.99 PRODUCT SIZES: Tea Pot: 3 5/8 x 2 ¼" Lid: 1 ½ x 7/8" Sugar: 1 7/8 x 1 ¾" Lid: 1 3/8 x ¾" Creamer: 2 x 1 ¾" Spoon: 5/8 x 3" Tea Bag: 1 x 5/8" Tea Bag Tag: 3/8 x ½" Sku Name EL-008 Flower Fun MSRP: $9.99 PRODUCT SIZES: 5" x 7" I chose to make a mixed media box frame using these wonderful new dies. Firstly, select an 8” x 8” box frame with a mount. Cut a piece of cream cardstock to emboss with your new Spellbinders M-Bossabilites Flower Fun folder, you will need to run this through the Spellbinders Grand Calibur® with your A Base Plate and D Raspberry Adaptor Plate. The deep emboss is beautiful. Adhere this behind your box frame mount. Next, decide on a pretty piece of fabric. You will be creating a fabric teapot with your Tea Service teapot die. Run through the Grand Calibur®. You will also need a small amount of fiber fill. Here it is with some fiber fill placed behind, a full teapot! Cut and emboss a tea bag tag. I’ve stamped a teacup design from Waltzingmouse Stamps - Afternoon Tea. Now to create a frame – use LF-161 Grand Labels One #5 and 6 (where #1 is the smallest), nest them make a frame, cut and emboss deep pink cardstock. Position your frame over the aperture. Adhere your fabric teapot and tag onto your pretty embossed background. Clip into your box frame and you are finished. It is a clean and simple design but with beautiful detail. The supplies I used are: S5-076 Tea Service LF-161 Grand Labels One EL-008 M-Bossabilities Folder – Flower Fun Bazill Cardstock – French Vanilla and Grenadine ScorPal – Double Sided Tape Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L – 3D Foam Pads Beacon Adhesives – Fabri-Tac Waltazingmouse – After Tea Stamp Here is a further project I have created using the dies, a teapot card.
