Things are not always what they appear! When you look at this die set, you may be hard pressed to see what it becomes but that’s why we’re here – bring on the inspiration! We’re so tickled to be introducing a new and unique take on doilies. Please welcome the Dimensional Doilies Collection. Hop through with all of the Amazing Paper Grace Creative Team to get a small taste of inspiration as well as see how each has used these new motifs!

Inspiration for Dimensional Doilies
Some of the first dies ever to hit the market were doilies. They gave you a symmetrical base to put your card elements on and they simply frame your creation and draw your eye inward. By now you probably have many flavors of doilies in your stash. These doilies are different. With one pass of the die, three identical motifs are created. These motifs have perforations and slits on each edge. When the perforations are folded and the slits are intersected, it creates a round doily of 6 to nine pieces that has a secondary filigree layer. The texture, dimension and pure femininity they add to a card front is gorgeous.
This collection is full of rims and the ability to create shadow layers, each die gives you several options. Whether you like an intricate layer or the solid layer, the choice is yours!
My Card For Today
I’m tickled to introduce all four of the dimensional doilies :-)
I wanted to show the effect when you layer two doilies. It gives a very pleasing depth and dimension and because the doilies are shaped differently, they are easily staggered so that you can see the layers beneath.
I’ve layered two in each card and you can see individual doilies displayed by each Creative Team member.
Here I am showing: S4-1061 Pointed Harmony and S4-1060 Heart Melange.

Becca I love two doilies together! Beautiful cards :-)
Joanna
What size card can you make? Can you make an A2 size? Love the look.
Hey Jane:
The doilies are about 5.5″ all the way around, so for an A2 you might look to do a half doily. The starburst petal is a smaller doily is you can probably get down to about 5″.
I hope this helps!
Hugs
Becca
I like the versatility of this die very much. Such beautiful samples
Your cards always look so exquisite, it’s lovely

Becca you have outdid yourself again with this amazing die set. The cards and box are gorgeous. You work is always so exquisite.
Love all you do.
Wow, Becca, these dies really deliver! The dimensional element is brilliant! You are such a paper genius. Thank you for another must-have series of dies.
You are so creative and I love that you challenge us in how we employ your dies in our card making! As usual you can use in dies tandem with other doilies as you did. However, looking at the display it seems as if you could also cut the pattern and overlay it over the solid one. I wonder if you could alternate designs in same doily. Looking forward to seeing what your creative team did. Everyone keep well and happy.
Stunning! All your cards are like pieces of art. I love how you take a die and turn it into something so magical on a card.
The inventive ways you design your dies is amazing! Love using these doily dies that cut separately for endless possibilities. Your cards here showcase so many ways to create. Pure elegance and beauty!
Becca, these are just beautiful–like everything else you create is! I just love these and would love to have the dies!
Hi Becca. Oh these are absolutely stunning. Love all of the beautiful creations, but I think my favourite is the Heart Melange. Hugs xx
