Have you ever looked at your dies and thought ‘I could make a card out of that’? Today we are stretching our supplies to have fun making SIX Shaped Cards! Welcome back to my Same But Different Christmas Card Series for 2020! Today is going to be a blast so let’s get started…..
My first 3 cards feature dies that are already shaped like an image… but I will also share some other options for your to create some fun designs with everyday dies as well.
Starting with this fabulous Modern Fireplace and Mantel Decor from Altenew. Seriously you can use sooo many image dies to create a ‘card’, you just need to take a look at what you have!
These cardstocks are from the new Concord & 9th mixed paper pack, I loved mixing and matching these colours. And the sentiment is from the Joyful Holiday Wishes set.
Next up is a fun die cut Christmas Crew – Girl Elf from MFT.
This time I added a sentiment from the Seasonal Say It All Stamp Set.
Who would have thought this Gingerbread Plushie Girl from Ellen Hutson could be turned into a card….
This sentiment is from the Warmest Wishes set (can you tell that I really liked this colour combo?)
Time to change it up and this time I have used one of the Tag Trio dies to create a card. But I took it to the next level and made it a Knockout Forest shaker…..
As well as adding the Deer Couple and my ‘homemade’ tassel.
Next it’s time to try out a nesting die and the Essential Circles was perfect to create my very own ‘bauble’ card.
Yet another handmade tassel and I have a video linked below showing how I made it! This time I have a simple Believe sentment from Holiday Snippets and I also added some Pinkfresh Crystals.
And my final design was created by simply cutting down a card base into a triangle…. no dies needed at all. I coloured my tree with the Mighty Corners Stencil from Altenew.

I also added a cute Purrfect Holidays kitty (retired) along with a fun sentiment from the Believe Stamp Set from Penny Black.

Here they are together…
and more….

I hope that you are inspired to create some Shaped Cards this Christmas and if you try some of these ideas I love it if you’d tag me so that I can see what you create!
And yes there is still more to come! Big Christmassy hugs,

Thanks so very much Michele!
What a clever set, Therese! I love shape cards! Add to the to do list!!! 🙂 : )
Hope you have fun with it Helen!
These are adorable!
Thank you Gab!
Well these are all pretty amazing. My absolute favorite is the bauble card. It’s just the sweetest thing. I just adore this series and I go back to all the previous years ones for inspiration. Thank you so very much.
Cheers
Lisa
You are so very sweet, thanks so very much!
Great ideas and cards. I think the bauble is my favourite: love those colours, the retro, graphic look and of course, the tassel.
So happy you enjoyed these Christine!
WOW! Amazing. Love the bauble! So clever. I can see that with gliter or foil paper too!
You could use anything… even made into a shaker would be fun!
Creative, cute and so much fun, Therese … looks and sounds as though you really enjoyed making each of these shaped cards (and the tassel) … I sure enjoyed watching you (and your sweet kitty!). Hugs, Anita 🙂
Yes Anita, they were all such fun to plan out and make, I had so many ideas it was hard to limit them to one video lol.
You simply amaze me with all your creations! I love watching your tutorials.
Thanks so much for your lovely visit here today!
Crushing over your array of shaped cards; each one a smile-making delight! Excited to watch your video!
