Gear Time

I know I am always looking for something to use to make cards or to add to layouts for my husband, son, grandson etc.  It is hard to find suitable die cuts for the men in our lives.  Darice has a great die in the shape of various gears.  Darice Gears Die

It is very easy to use and looks amazing on a card..As you can see on this card the gears have been cut twice, once on a colour and then on black to background the coloured one.

You can also use the die to cut on foam. This card has all of the gears backed with foam. Just a great way to add dimension to your projects.

And if you like to add them to a layout, this is a sample of more fun you can have with these gears. The gears on this layout are also backed with foam. We also added some gold glitter to the edges of the gears for more fun.

So Gear up for your next card or layout. These are really fun to use.
