Why I love my Take A Bow Die!

As a stamper, card maker, and scrapbooker, finding tools that can adapt to a variety of projects is like striking gold. My Take A Bow Die from Stampin’ Up! is one such treasure, and its versatility is the primary reason I love it so much. At first glance, the Take A Bow Die might seem like it’s limited to making bows. But in practice, it’s an incredibly multi-functional die that opens up countless design possibilities.

Here’s how I’ve used my Take A Bow Die creatively for my holiday-themed scrapbook pages in the video demonstration below.

• For borders or frames
• For decorative elements
• For Christmas Trees (my favorite use of the Take A Bow Die)

Versatility was the theme of this week’s 2 Facebook Lives. It sure has been fun to discover new ways to use the Take A Bow Die for my Holiday Scrapbook Pages in this post.

I also found that the Adventurous Sky Bundle makes some adorable Holiday Cards in addition to masculine cards. And how about how the Nested Essentials Dies can be used to create an interesting background for card fronts? Awesome, right!

I hope you are feeling inspired to look at your Stampin’ Up! products in new ways. Versatility of our products gives them more value and gives you and me more opportunities to be creative!

I look forward to sharing more Stampin’ Up! products and creative projects with you here at StampinPeace.com as well as my YouTube Channel and Facebook Page both named Stampin’ Peace with Mary Knabe.
