Product Description:

Our new “Japanese Cherry Blossom Mountain & Crane Add-On” Metal Craft Die Set will be a great accompaniment to your new favorite tunnel in the Scrappy Tails Tunnel card collection the “Japanese Cherry Blossom Square Tunnel Pop Up Card”. With this new Mountain & Crane square design, you will be able to decorate the new 5 inch square tunnel (sold separately).

It includes everything you need to further enhance the Japanese Cherry Blossom Tunnel by giving you a beautiful square shaped die set that creates a gorgeous backdrop to your tunnel and could easily be your last inserted tunnel layer. This die set includes a set of two adorable cranes (some customers think they look like whooping cranes and others think they mimic storks). You will get one male and one female. They are small layering birds with just some small and easy layers, but they are cool birds and Scrappy Tails is always excited to add some new birds to our bird collection. Additionally, you are also getting the mountain backdrop with a layer of mountains to create a cool snow capped or glacier/Ice-lined mountain scene as well as a tall tree line in the foreground. Consider to mix and match this die set with the others in the Japanese Cherry Blossoms collection to create detailed outdoor scenes like mountain lake scenes with other pretty details.

We will be sharing technique tutorials and many beautiful interactive pop up cards, tunnel shadow box cards and other gorgeous 3D card design samples on our YouTube channel and our design team is also ready to create some fabulous tunnel pop ups, trifolds and other interactive cards this year- so please keep your eye open on our social media and on our “Scrappy Tails Crafters” Facebook fan page. 

Directions for metal craft die use:

1. Gently remove the metal craft die from it’s packaging
2. Using your favorite die-cutting machine, lay a piece of strong card-stock facing the sharp edges of the die and run the required “plate sandwich” through your machine (please note that different machines use different die-cutting sandwiches)
3. These dies are thin steel dies and they work in most available manual and automatic die cutting machines, such as your Vagabond, Cuttlebug, Gemini, Gemini junior, Spellbinder’s Platinum, Big Kick, Big Shot etc.
4. Dies work on different thin materials, including paper, cardstock, specialty foiled or glitter papers
5. Share your beautiful projects with us at #scrappytailscrafts
