EZ with CZ: Tips for Grid-Based Designs

Hi friends! Happy Wedesday! Please join me in welcoming special monthly Guest *CZ herself*, Cathy Zielske in the latest of our EZ with CZ blog series! Be sure to watch the video to learn all the details on this pretty card and enjoy!!

It’s Cathy Z. Here and today I’m sharing some fun tips for lining up die cuts and repeated exact patterns on multiple die cuts. My A2 Grid dies cut out many basic shapes, along with a delicate grid designed to be placed onto a card panel. I’m using the die to emboss onto the card panel to give me an easy placement guideline.

Then, I’m using a little template to stamp the exact same pattern onto all of my heart shapes. Check out the video to see how these work:

Using the embossed panel to place the delicate grid die is so helpful! It was actually someone on my YouTube channel who saw me using this die set who suggested that I try it.

Also, if you have some pattern stamps you love, try stamping on die cut shapes as I did for this card to give new life to your stamp and to add a little something extra to your die cuts.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I’ll see you back here next month!
