CONGRATS TO BLFONTY!  WINNER OF THE $5 GIFT CARD! THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERED!!!

Hello and thank you for allowing me to be a tad bit late with this month's Movie Madness Challenge!

I've really been into fussy cutting and die cutting these days so the movie is an obvious choice to me:

"DIE HARD"


I am not a fan of guns these days so I used a little creative license with the photo...and it applies to the challenge! ( Ahh, Hans Gruber, you will be missed)
So this month I want you to be literal and use those die cuts to DIE (cut) HARD! 

OPTION ONE
Use dies,cutting machines, punches or fussy cut a LARGE shape for your layout.  I cut a giant donut for my page.  Try to make the shape one quarter (6x6) of the page!
Aplhabets/numbers count as well.

OPTION TWO
Use many, many, many die cuts, punched shapes or fussy cuts to create a border from edge to edge of your paper.  It can be layered or straight but it must be the full length or width of the base paper.

The Fine Print:
1. HAVE FUN MAKING YOUR PROJECT!
2. Entries open to new projects - paper, digital, & card making.
3. May be combined with one other challenge that allows it.
4. Due july 6th 2018, at 11:59 PM.
5. One lucky winner, chosen at random, will receive a $5 ACOT gift card from us!
6. Up to 3 entries permitted per month.
7. A RAK is awarded to a second winner if there are more than 15 unique entries (not including bonuses) during the month.

I used option 2.

[StacyLee]

This was really fun, thanks for the challenge!  I cut the sun with my Cricut over 6" x 6" but I tucked it under and trimmed some off the side of the page...hope that's ok.  I'm also combining with the June Sketch with a Twist challenge.

I did option 1 and 2 using a large circle die cut with QuicKutz title die cut letters/numbers and 3 kinds of arrow die cuts and a scallop 12" border die cut. Also, scraplifted Rose's sample layout. Thanks for the inspiration! Layout submitted to the May/June Music Challenge.

For the Movie Madness Challenge I did option 2. All the hearts for the border are punched. I combined with the Use Your Stash Challenge.

Hello, Hello here is my first entry...a Exploding Box Card.
Talk about using dies!  This whole project is using dies only thing extra used is glue, ink & Sparkle pen.
Currently I'm trying to make my DIE Cut reference book so I'll quit buying duplicate dies!  So when I cut dies, I always cut extras and throw them in a dish.  When I need different colors of paper to piece a die, I always save the odd pieces. Sometime a die will cut out little parts that I save to use elsewhere.  In this box you will see little butterflies that were left after cutting out another box die.  You'll see pink branches where I pieced another die. I cut out or punch extra hearts and leaves in different colors to have on hand.  I do alot of this to use up the extra left over odd shaped paper.  This saves time, uses up scraps, etc.  So when I made this box everything was made from scrap paper except the white base.  I just grabbed my bowl of dies and just stuck them in there.  There was a few odd colors for a cat or branch but it all matched the spring colors on the accent paper.  I hope this project qualifies for your challenge let me know if it doesn't.  Otherwise thank you for letting me participate and I have also included a picture of the dies that I used or took the leftovers after piecing to use.

Hello again....Here is my second entry for your Movie Madness Challenge.  It is a Graduation Card I made for my neice.  I used a ton of dies on this set.  There is a picture of them included in the gallery as well as including the manufacturers.  I really don't make many cards, but I had fun making this one for my great niece.  We both graduated from the same High School and our school colors were orange & black...hence the colors used in the card.  I hope you enjoy this card.  I also entered this one in the Holiday Challenge.

Hello...
Here is my final entry into this month's Movie Madness Challenge.  This is a birthday card I made with Graphic 45 Time to Celebrate collection.  I used De`sire/Crafters COMPANION card die, 2 label dies, & Spectrum Noir clear overlay Sparkle markers.  I did alot of fussy cutting using scraps of this paper and created 3D embellishments on the card?  I cut out the little girl, flowers, leaves, the cake, etc.  I mounted them on foam tape.  I didn't want the backside to be all white, so I cut out the stripped paper from the 6x6  pad of stripes and patterns.  I wanted a certain look of the labels sticking out from the bend of the card.  This gave me more room on the front to use the girl as a focal point.  And the small label on the back was where my made by stamp would go.  Alot of time went into this card.  I also made 2 little boxes to go with the card that I thought turned out cute too.  I'll put that link in the description  too.
thanks....Mary TATMAN
