We just love dies that transform into different things! When you look at this die template there is no limit to the ways it can be fixed and flipped and folded to give you a beautiful prop, box, or card. Welcome to the Amazing Pape Grace May 2020 Die of the Month - Fleur de Lis Grandeur Fold Over.
We often talk about that "easy to use die template" that you reach for time after time after time. This, is one of those. This month after using it we've seen it make the most darling filigree envelope that simply requires cutting and folding. We've seen it make a simple notecard that will produce a card in under five minutes. We've seen it make a box top that simply takes the time to score and fold the box and drape the die over the top. As always, the die makes a card that goes from just die-cutting to one that has layers of the filigree elements crisscrossed. Lol, do cards make themselves? Almost with this one - that puts in on our "goto" list.
Here are the dies included in the set:

For my project today, I have created a playful and simple Birthday card with a matching gift-box.
For the card, I've only used the center die and the flower, repeating the cuts, and adding layers for extra dimension. Ive used carpet tape adhered over cardstock. This added a fun texture and lovely pattern to the gray papers. For the matching gift-box, I sized to fit the lid that this fabulous die will cut. All sides are decorated and multi-layered. Box is topped with 3 die-cut flowers from the same lovely die and a large gray satin ribbon. All elements were adhered with hot-glue. Fun bling finishes-off the looks.
