Good morning!! Welcome to our inaugural blog hop of the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month. Since all of this is brand new, today we’re here to feed you some inspiration for the many ways and colors to use the Die of the Month as well as to give you the skinny on the club. Moreover, be sure to stay tuned until the end of the post when I’ll point you to the next inspiration stop in our blog hop.
What is the Die of the Month?
The Die of the Month is an exclusive die, crème de la crème, designed by me that are unlike previous collections. These are the special ones, the ones that have waited for a special occasion! What better way than to take you on a year-long ride of unexpected surprises!
Where is the Die of the Month available?
The Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month is available through Spellbinders.
How much is the Die of the Month?
It’s a large die and subscription to the club is $30.00 per month and includes US Shipping.
What’s so special about the Die of the Month?
These are dies that are chock full of extra rims and options! Because of this, you’ll have a huge amount of flexibility in creating more than one creation from the same set. It’s exclusive and furthermore, it’s limited, so you won’t see it anywhere else and it’s available until the subscription quantities are gone.
When is the Die of Month available?
The die of the month is available on the first of every month in quantities to cover subscriptions. That means when it is gone, it’s gone :-)
Why have a Die of the Month?
When most of my dies come out they are themed collections of 12 to 14 dies. These are the dies that are more specialized that I didn’t want to build an entire collection around – they are definitely the elegant style I love, and as a result I’ve built extra functionality and thought into these sets. When looking at the entire year, I’ve curated dies that are unique and have some of my favorite formats, shapes and intricacies.
You all have spoken loud and clear to say that you have a monthly budget and that you want to be able to get my dies all year long without breaking the bank. Well, here you go. Don’t worry, collections are not going away but streaming them out on a monthly basis, you’ll see one once a month and they are delightful on the budget.

Once you’re in, start creating!! We can’t wait to see what you make with these exclusive dies – be the first to post your creation on Instagram using the hashtag #AmazingPaperGraceClubKit
Why post? Certainly, you’ll be showing me how you use the die so that I can fine-tune upcoming months to fit your groove and you’ll be inspiring everyone who looked at the die and didn’t know all the possibilities – it’s a community thing!
My 3D Christmas Village Vignette Frame Make
This month I’m highlighting the Christmas Village Vignette Frame Die. If you look closely you’ll notice that it looks a whole lot like the popular 3D Vignette Grand Cabinet. That’s no accident because I like to make things that work together and add value to what’s already in your stash. No worries though, you don’t have to have 3D Vignettes to use this die.
This is one of the first cards I made with the set and for that reason, I am highlighting it today! I’ve used the new Spellbinders Glimmer Machine to delicately place the unique outline of the die onto the card. Wow! This made it one of the easiest makes ever and furthermore, I think the gold makes a statement. The fragile and intricate look of the frame do all the work and it was oh, so, easy to use the sentiment die as a focal point.
If you already have the Glimmer machine, turn on and heat machine to ready then…
- First of all, simply trim your gold foil to match the size of the frame.
- Place your die face up on the base of the Glimmer Machine.
- Next, add your foil shiny side down on top of the frame.
- On top, add your favorite cardstock – here I’ve used Neenah Classic Crest Smooth, Natural White, 80lb
- To complete your foiling sandwich on the base, add both Glimmer Shims on top
- Finally, run through, remove foil and voila! As a result, you now have a lovely sparkling background frame!

You’ve done it again. I love this die – just what I need for my Christmas cards as I have the 3D Grand Cabinet die. Unfortunately, the shipping costs to the UK make joining the club much too expensive.
It can’t possibly cost $51 to ship one die to the UK. There must be something they can do, especially as Becca is now associated with Hochanda. I’d definitely subscribe but can’t justify spending that much on postage.
Beautiful! Looking forward to my die set to arrive so I can get started on this newest release. Great blog hop. Everyone is so creative.
Love all the inspirational cards, boxes, and tags your team created!!! I can’t wait for my set to arrive so I can start creating!!! I’m going to love being a member of this club!
I like your dies. Your cards are beautiful.
Beautiful!! That fine line of golden highlight sure does take it up a notch.
OMG Becca you are going to blow it out of the water with your die club. I’m already in love with your collections. This is a beautiful classy way to start the club , can’t wait.
WOW! GORGEOUS WORK, Becca! I am ALWAYS AMAZED at your work!!! Have been ever since I found your blog AGES AGO! LOL I’m SO GLAD I subscribed the other day, as soon as it was out! CAN’T WAIT to get this kit! I LOVE EVERYONE’S IDEAS!!!! You & your team just OVERWHELM with BEAUTY!!!! (I have gotten several of the Cabinet dies & all of the insert dies, I’ll call them…. I will be doing a “Baby Blitz” soon on my blog using them! I’m just waiting for a few little things to come in yet to finish off my projects! ;) HOPE you like them when I get them posted.) ALWAYS A FAN! ;)
Hi Becca,
I decided this was something I just had to have so I ordered and can’t wait for it to arrive. My fav is the one with the red and am going to see if that one is doable for me!! Totally awesome! Glad you didn’t wait to debut them!

Love this die! Are the dies of the month exclusive and only available to those who pay the subscription, so will not appear in shops/websites at a later date?
Good morning Becca, once again you’ve amazed me!!!
Bless you and congratulations!!!

Another stunning die and I love that it can work with what I already have! Lovely card too!
Another amazing die set. This will work with other dies. You are an amazing crafter love xx
Love your work. Love the elegance of your designs.
Becca….what a gorgeous Christmas set! I am thrilled to be able to join your monthly club. So many wonderful ideas and projects…I need more time to play! I have all of your 3D vignettes, so this is the icing on the cake! I can hardly wait to get my new set…and to see what you have for us in the coming months. God Bless.
I am trying to join your club and the link does not seem to work for me. Please help as I want to join this club. I enjoyed your first one very much.
Great and beautiful card thanks for sharing
I am so happy for you and your success, without a doubt, God must be smiling on you and blessing you. I know you have had many trial and tribulations so I am sure you sometimes wonder but it is only through these hard times that we grow stronger in our Father. I am praying for you, especially for all to come together quickly with your home life and to return to normal. We went through something similar years ago and it was one of the hardest times of our life because we were dealing with so many other problems at the same time. There were times when I praised God with tears streaming down my face and times I was so angry I couldn’t think straight. I had to learn to trust Him totally and completely and goodness that is so hard to let it all go and just give it all to Him. My husband and I must be very stubborn people because it took us a long long time to learn… LOL… Sending love and hugs your way… keeping you in my thoughts and prayers… Denice : )
How exciting! This club selection looks fabulous!
This is gorgeous Becca, Can’t wait to see what the rest of the team has made! x
Hi Becca your die for the month is gorgeous !
It is realy sad though that international followers
of you and your blog can’t join in the excitement
of your special, especially since I have most of your
die collections .
The spellbinders dies we purchase here in Aussie are
not costing this huge postage to our suppliers who we
shop with .
I like many others wish that Spellbinders whould look
into doing something about the cost ……….
You are Amazing Becca keep up the good work
Hugs Pam XXX
Hi Becca! So excited that you have this opportunity available to you. Your dies are always gorgeous and I have quite a few already. However, I can’t join the club. I’m only able to save up and purchase dies occasionally. So this means when dies like this month’s selection comes up, instead of getting it or saving up and knowing Spellbinders will have it in stock later on, now I can only look at beautiful samples online. I’m disappointed in this decision but understand you have to do what is right for you.
On another note, I am so sorry to hear you were affected by Hurricane Michael. I will keep you in my prayers and hope you are able to get back on your feet soon.
I am so excited to get spellbinder and begin crafting
