Hello Gracelets!! This month’s die of the month is elegant, and versatile and falls smack dab in the middle of my signature style. Welcome this month to Elegant Infinity and the Elegant Infinity video linked below. The rings were an integral part of the design and we adjusted and tweaked them until we got them just right!! Speaking of signature style, I have a burning question for you about just that at the bottom of my post.
Inspiration for Elegant Infinity
I so love a die that can be used for many things and I think this month’s die doesn’t disappoint. The main motif for this die is 4″ which means that even A4 peeps can use it. In the larger scheme of things, it makes a beautiful center that fits well in the center of a 5.5″ or 6.0″ square card. Here are some of the many ways the die can be cut:
Here is a very quick video that shows all the pieces to the die set and my “go to” way to put these elements together:

I would love it if you would weigh in here to leave me a comment and let me know, what’s your signature style?
A. I’m mainly a classic card maker, but do some other styles.
B. I’m mainly a cutesy card maker, but do some other styles.
C. I’m mainly a clean and simple card maker, but do some other styles.
D. I’m mainly an interactive card maker, but do some other styles.
E. I’m a combo – rank them in the order you create most of.
If I answer this question, believe it or not, I’m an E (combo) here is how I create A, D, B, C.
Why would I ask this….? Well, I’m getting ready to start designing for 2021 and I’m curious to know if you like classic over interactive? Clean over cute?
Thanks so much for stopping by, see you soon!!
GORGEOUS WORK, Becca! I can’t wait to see what other ways to use this GORGEOUS DIE & for it to arrive!!! LOVE what you’ve done with it already!!! ;)
I am with you, I am an E (Combo) type of card maker. In the order of: A, D, C, & B. It REALLY depends on the mood I’m in, & the occasion too! (I LOVE to color- Water Color, Colored Pencils, etc., FLORALS! So, when I make cards, I enjoy integrating them into my card making. Yes, even with your GORGEOUS DIES!)
I’m an E too. If I had to rank the choices, I’d say I don’t normally do interactive cards at all and probably prefer clean and simple.
You always have beautiful designs! My style is pretty much classic. I have started CAS cards but that empty space always begs me to be filled somehow ;)
I’m an E – A, D.
I LOVE your dies! I mainly make A4 size cards so dies that fit that size are what I look for.
Hi, Becca,
I’m blown away by your creativity…you’re a dynamo! It’s delightful being a “Gracelet”. After all these years, it is still exciting to have a front row seat to all your innovation, productivity and love for elegant beauty. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness and desire to meet all of us where we are. In response to your query, my preferences would be exactly like yours. I love interactive cards but their style is classic. I made a birthday card last week using your new shutter dies and Graphic 45 Floral Shoppe papers…oo, so pretty. I’ll share soon.
Love & blessings, Sandy
I am mainly an A with an occasional interactive card thrown in here and there.
Mostly an A. Almost never cutesy or simple and clean. I like adding classic to interactive occasionally. This is one of the reasons I subscribe to your die of the month. They usually suit my taste of feminine.
I am more of a classic card maker. interactive as in with moving parts is too much thinking involved. cutesie is too trendy for me. although every now and then something strikes my fancy. I wish my cas was better but I like layers.
Another beautiful die set your designs are gorgeous. I amA,D,C,B card maker. Can’t believe another month is upon us were does the time go..
I am in an E mode. This is the order: A,B, D, C.Super gorgeous cards and projects!!!
Gorgeous! Love your cards and have missed seeing you. How do I get back on your list for e-mails? I’ve got to get this die.
Glad you’re back.
Forgot to say, I’m a combo card maker, I love water color, copic, die cuts and whatever. Love flowers, nature, children’s, men and of course wedding and anniversary. Do a lot of sympathy too.
Hope that helps. I have some of your dies already but love this new one. Edna
I love this set, very pretty. I am probably an E I would rate me in this order C, A, B, D.
ADBC. I also create a lot of what I call simple shabby. Fewer layers than most shabby artists but I still use distressed elements.
Good morning Becca, absolutely love the new Die, it’s very much my style and very versatile. I am definitely an A Classic card Creator, but do find myself making all types. I’m not that keen on doing humorous cards though, they’re not pretty enough.
Love your work, and so thankful that I found your website many years ago. I don’t do Facebook, Twitter etc, so posting my comments is my only way of communication.
Bless you,
Jan S,
That is the perfect name for these spectacular dies, Becca! They are so stunning! xx
Hi could you tell me when this will come to Australia, of late nobody here stocks any of the new dies. You may be able to tell us your Australian stockist. Thanks ?
I absolutely love this Die!! I can not wait to get my hands on it!! Your dies are the most versatile and beautiful on the market I’m so very happy to be a club member of your Amazing dies. My style is A I’m not a fan of clean and simple or interactive (except I loved your twist and pop card die set)
C. I’m mainly a clean and simple card maker, but do some other styles. Although, I watch everything you do and will one day become familiar enough with your style that I will step out and finally just ‘do it’. Thank you for all that you do. Your work is beautiful!
I too am an E. I am addicted to dies. I always go to them first. I’d say my creativity goes to A, C, D, and occasionally B. I like interactive cards but need more time to construct them. And I only have a niece and nephew I make the cutesy cards.
I too, am an E. The style of card depends on the person and reason. I like interactive cards and don’t make “Cutesy” cards.
I mostly do B Cutesy and Classic A, but not as intricate as your stunning creations! Your new dies are gorgeous. I find Clean and Simple difficult and also Shabby Chic styles. But I admire it when others create them.
A.. a classic card maker who can’t get enough of BF dies!. Love the elegance and detail
What an absolutely beautiful collection!!! So many possibilities! Thank you, Becca!
Another absolutely gorgeous die which is so versatile. You have created some beautiful projects, as always. I’m an E – A, C, D, B.

Hi Becca,
Absolutely phenomenal die set. Can’t wait for it to get here.
I am mainly E; also A, C & D. I am not a big stamper but am starting to do more. Just did a birthday card (triple stamped). Turned out fairly well for my first. I just like making cards!!
Hugs
Ann
I love the combo, classy look.
mostly C
BACKGROUND: I have loved your timeless elegant style since I started making cards about 2 yrs. ago and signed up for APGDOM from the start. I would say I have about 90% of dies available from you during this two years. I also have started collecting a few of your glimmer plates, even though I don’t have the Glimmer Hot Foil System yet – saving up.
STYLE: I too am an E (combo) here is how I create D, A, B, C. Honestly this does vary with mood and recently I have gotten into making more flowers after watching several of your videos not sure what category this is.
What I Use the Most: I adore the 3D Vignette Mini Album Collection dies, 3D Interactive Pivot Banner (I use this a lot), Cabinets and Inserts and All Occasion Sentiments Stamp and Die Set are a staples. Hope there are more inserts in our future – Maybe drop in sentiments would be nice. Doilies have gotten a real workout lately, How about some 3D embossing folders to go with the dies. Also would appreciate more sentiments in different script styles.
Thanks for asking for our input and hope you have fun creating your future products. I know I am excited to see your new designs. You are very talented! Good Luck…
I think I am also and E….. in order of A, C, B, and D. I have different moods and that means different styles depending on how I feel. Also depends on who I am sending the card to…
Lovely card as always and by the way, I do so love being called a Gracelet. Makes me feel like part of the family.
God bless….Denice with a “c”
I have just found your blog yesterday. I love your dies. I love your work!! I would probably be an E as well. Thinking about the monthly shipments, but as I am a senior citizen on a limited income I most watch what I spend. I cried over the dog story. Love fur babies. So glad you got her back. I can’t imagine searching and waiting for 60 days!
I love every one of my APG dies and especially Becca’s tutorials! Thank you so much for hours of enjoyment! I am a E combo, and usually make A and E.
This is gorgeous and so versatile! I am 95% A and the other 5% combo. I have made and enjoyed “cutesy” in the past, but my recipients have kind of outgrown those and I guess I have. too. Keep up the good work!
Becca, I love your new dies and the cards you make with it. But can’t find a way to order any. Also would like to copy the card so when I get the die can try to make a card similar to yours. Help.
I’m an E too – A, B, C. Love your new dies. How about an add-on set of filigree decorative panel dies for the charming cottage gift box (that you could add or cut-in to the sides). The rose from the flourished fretwork release would be a great panel as well as a filigree tulip panel. Your designs are fantastic and it is a shame the monthly die is not really an option for me in the UK.
All of your creations are stunning! I’m an E-A,C,B,D. However, my heart always, always is drawn to Victorian and vintage. Lace captures my eye and my heart wherever I see it-the real article, picture or drawing, it will demand my utmost attention.
