Ali Express Dies

Just for fun, today I am showing you some cards I made using a few of the awesome dies I have purchased from Ali Express.  If you are a Follower, you know I am a huge fan of this [SUPER CHEAP] site.  Many of you have contacted me to let me know that you also are having fun with purchasing at such a cheap price!  If you haven't popped over, I HIGHLY recommend checking out this company.  [I would of saved $1,000's had I known about them years ago!]  Warning:  Grab a cup of coffee - you're going to be a while with browsing this site. :)

So, for my first card, I used the most ADORABLE baby feet die ever!  Check these out;

They totally make me smile!  I mean seriously, look at those toes!  To cute for words.  This set does come with 2 tee tiny sayings, but I used my Congrats from Mama Elephant. [Yeah, full price for this one - but I do adore the font!]  I am actually going to be mailing out this card for a new baby, so the congrats works perfectly.

Here is a photo of the Baby Feet Dies.
[I linked the "search" link so you can see all the different offers, and shop for the cheapest price].  Depending on the dies I get, I use magnetic tape in a cd holder to hold them, and I label the outside spine as to the die.

I also got this set.  In this case, it was smaller then I thought, but with the cheap price, I'm okay with it.  I can still use them - just in a different way that originally planned. :)

Frame Balloon; $1.79 [I used the quarter for size comparison]

Here is the tiny card I made with this one:

I made a 3x3 tiny card that will hang from a gift bag.  I alcohol inked up a separate panel of glossy paper, and then cut out the tiny balloons for the pop of color.  My sentiment is from a Simon Says stamp set Christmas.  

And finally, I saved the best [IMO] for last;

Tiny shoes, on tiny boxes!  Yes, these are separate dies; Girl Shoe Die, Boy Shoe Die, and Small Box Die.

Just look at these adorable shoes!  I am totally in love. :)
So FUN!



That's it for me today.  I hope you enjoyed my samples using some of the fun [and oh.so.cheap] dies from Ali Express. My collection is growing daily.  [Literally, I seem to be getting a die a day - I love getting my mail now! ;)]  Like I have said before - it it well worth your time checking out the site.  Let me know if you find anything fun, I would love to see what you buy.


Thanks for stopping by~

The dies are darling, Vicki, and your cards/projects are so sweet. I have not ordered any dies from Ali Express, but I have friends who have. I have used their dies and they are great. I'm on a no-buying mission right now, otherwise I would have purchased lots - LOL!
