Expressions Thinlets Dies

This first picture has nothing to do with thinlet dies but I wanted to show you a project I've been working on today!  I enjoyed working with the hot glue and buttons making jewelry earlier this week so I decided to try putting some on a birdhouse!  I found a wooden bird house from a hobby store and got the hot glue gun warmed up.  This is the roof which is all I have finished for now.  Hopefully in a few days I'll have more complete to show you.

I found these great photos on the Stampin'Up! website featuring some artisan team projects that used the thinlets expression dies.  The expressions dies are in the current holiday catalog and I can't promise that they will carry over so get them while you can.  The first card has the word "Merry" from the set on an elegant Christmas card that would be easy to case!  The card has a sparkly silver glimmer paper snowflake cut with the festive flurry framelets, also in the Holiday catalog!

Next is a great fall scrapbook layout using "thankful" from the expressions thinlets set.  Leaves cut from Sweater Weather designer series paper and Autumn Accents die make this an eye catching page!

Checkout this beautiful watercolor design.  The artist used our high quality watercolor paper shaded with aqua painters and ink squeezed into the lids of the ink pads.  She has used the negative cut out of the love and carefully put the little pieces back in to complete the word.  A little punched heart really sets it off!

Now she has created a scrapbook layout so nothing goes to waste!  Here's the positive of the "love" used in this great layout!  There's even a little Washi tape in the act!  Some heart shapes cut with the heart farmelets set and a little punched butterfly really make the page!
