3D Birth Announcement Blocks

1 Mar

There’s a new kid on the block! My new grandson Hunter James arrived three weeks ago…

I created a 3D Birth Announcement from my new Sizzix Cherished collection. The Blocks/Cubes die is one of my faves because it is so versatile. Visit our sister site, The Artists on the Block, for lots more ideas and ways to use them. Or watch the quick stop-motion video I made here.

How-to’s are on the Sizzix UK blog today so hop on over and see how easy they are to make.

Hope you have a great weekend!
