Donna Salazar Carnation Creations Spellbinder dies

[bbgeltz]

Does anyone have a video for using this die set. I found Donna Salazar's video for the rose creations but did not find one for the carnation creations. I want a true representation of a carnation and I am not sure how to go about making it.

I couldn't find a video on the Carnations die, but here is a blog post with pictures of flowers made with it. She has some tips about making the petals curl up, too.

It looks like the assembly process is very similar to the Rose creations dies.

Here is a video I found, the flower comes on at 5:15 mins. I don't know if this is what you wanted??

Hi just dropping in to say hi. I saw this link to my card I'm wanting to spend a bit more time using the Carnation dies and come up with something a bit different to whatI've already made. My Cuttlebug is crook, and won't cut my dies properly so when ever I get a new one, possibly for Christmas, I'll experiment some more.

I've been looking for a card to link here, but can't find it :( , where the carnations were made with vellum and stencilled thru the die. They were so pretty, possibly one of the best I've seen made with the dies.

I stamped out these carnations, now having trouble getting them cut out with the dies, when you place the die over your image, its really hard to see, where the edges are. Anyone done this, stamped and then cut the carnations? seems this is better to use the dies on DP without stamping first ??

Here is a link to a video on how to do this.....it is from Heartfelt Creations....but this technique works with all stamps/matching die so that you get a perfect die cut!
