Custom Die Cutting

23 Sept 2012 -

Okay, hold on to your britches!! I have hundreds of shapes, mostly centered around cardmaking and mini scrapbook albums and have set the goal for myself of getting all the possible cutting combinations posted here on my blog. Eventually, maybe within 2 or three weeks, I'll get everything listed. Then I will add paper and shopping options. Within each category are the picures & links to each individual shape I can die cut. Each shape will also eventually have its own Gallery of sample project photos, and I'll add those over time. You are also welcome to email your project pics to me, and I can post all the info here on my blog! Here are the main categories:

New! - These are the shapes that have just arrived in the past month.
Coming Soon! - These are the shapes that I have ordered from AccuCut and will be coming soon.
A2 Card Convertibles (Window Cards & Mats) - These are all the card shapes that are 5-1/2"x8-1/2" flat and 5-1/2"x4-1/4" when folded. They also have shapes cut in one side to form windows into the inside of the card.
A2 Card Shapes - These are also all the card shapes that are 5-1/2"x8-1/2" flat and 5-1/2"x4-1/4" when folded. These do not have window shapes, but are solid. They also have unique shapes beyond the standard rectangle but the outmost points are still 5-1/2"x4-1/4" when folded.
A7 Card Convertibles (Window Cards & Mats) - These are all the card shapes that are 10"x7" flat and 5"x7" when folded. They also have shapes cut in one side to form windows into the inside of the card.
A7 Card Shapes - These are all the card shapes that are 10"x7" flat and 5"x7" when folded. These do not have window shapes, but are solid. They also have unique shapes beyond the standard rectangle but the outmost points are still 5"x7" when folded.
5-1/4" Square Cards - These are all the card shapes that are 10-1/2"x5-1/4" flat and 5-1/4" square when folded. This includes all the Convertibles (Window) cards, coordinating mats, and other 5-1/4" square shape cards.
Other Cards - These are all the other card shapes I have, such as gift card size and 3-3/8" square.
Envelopes - Envelopes of all shapes and sizes.
5-1/2" Mini Albums - Everyone has an obsession, and after cards, this project/shape is mine. So cool!! I probably have over 50 dies related to this theme. These are also the "word" albums (each page is a letter of a word). All the album pages are 5-1/2" high, with a great variety of widths for stylish album pages.
Mini Albums - These are all the OTHER sizes of mini albums, including 6"x6", 8"x8", and journaling albums (i.e. smash albums).
Bags & Boxes - These are all my 3-D bags and boxes die cut shapes.
Page Backgrounds - These are all the mat shapes designed to be page backgrounds for 12"x12" and 8"x8" scrapbook pages.
Tags, Frames, & Mats - These are all the shapes that cut tags, frame, and decorative mats for cards and scrapbook pages. Great for journaling and stamping greetings on cards.
Snowflakes - Another obsession!! Love snowflakes!!
Borders - These are all the shapes that cut decorative strips, most of them 12" wide.
Alphabets - These are the alphabet sets
Holidays & Occasions - Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's, Birthday, etc. themes.
Everything Else - All the other shapes that don't neatly fit into other categories. But still cool! Becky's Wish List - My ongoing list of dies I wish I had and ones I dream about ordering. Feel free to comment and make your own suggestions for dies I should order!
