Amazing Paper Grace June Die of the Month Blog Hop - Snip It Grid


Are you ready for another versatile Snip It Grid Die?

As a member of the Amazing Paper Grace Creative Team, I receive free product for use in my projects. 

Hello Gracelets!!  We are so tickled to share our inspiration for the newest Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for June 2020 - A2 Snip It Grid and Calendar Creator.  In fact, since Our earlier Snip It Die was a hit and Becca decided to give you another option with lots of extras!  All of us on the Creative Team want to show you our take on how to use it.

Snip It Grid Extras

The extras added on to this die set make it a wonderful value.  In addition to the grid, you get an entire lower case alphabet plus enough of the upper case alphabet to do Day of Week abbreviations and Months.  If you are already a Member of the Die of the Month Club then you might be tickled to know that this lower case alphabet matches the Upper Case alphabet from October 2019 Die of the Month - One Kind Word (still available).  

We kicked around how we might use the die and here's what we came up with:
  1. Background
  2. Large Frame
  3. Double Frame with two apertures
  4. Calendar
  5. Snip out the cross pieces and make a lined background
  6. Shaker Card
  7. Weaving
  8. Crossword Puzzle
Okay, okay, you get the idea!  But we want you to know that this transforms and gives you so many unique options.


Here are the dies included in the set:



My Project Today using Snip It Grid:

Today I would like to share two cards. I decorated my cards with the elements and flowers from the set. 


To create my flowers I die cut them from white card stock, ink them using Distress inks and wet them a bit before shaping them.


On this card I used a grid frame and the little squares that were die cut with it I used on my second card.



My second card:

On this card I die cut a grid frame in gold mirror card and then I added little squares that I had left over from the first card. I adhered some of them on 3D tape. I have just added them randomly. I have not added all of them.
