Get ready to add a splash of coastal charm to your summer scrapbooking! The Shell Frame die is part of our next Die Drop, and it's perfect for giving your pages a breezy, beachy look—with a fun twist on framing.
In Paije’s
"Kite Flying OBX 2019" layout, you’ll see how this die transforms two 4x4 blocks into mini masterpieces. The swirled frame mimics the natural curves of a seashell, and it’s designed to hold up to nine unique photo spots within its shape. She used it to highlight motion in the kite-flying photos and tell the story in a fresh, eye-catching way.
The die works beautifully for:
Coastal vacations
Summer fun
Nature walks
Nautical themes
Or anytime you want your layout to stand out!
This is one die that instantly elevates your page—and it's just the beginning of what's coming in this Die Drop!
Say hello (again!) to a favorite duo—now available as a convenient die set in our upcoming
Die Drop! Paije’s stunning “Cactus Garden” layout shows off just how versatile the Corner Strips & Connector dies can be when they’re used together.
These dies create crisp, modern designs with mini mosaic energy—great for
highlighting texture, color, or nature’s little details. In this layout, Paije fills the page with desert beauty: blooming cactus blossoms, spiky succulents, and one perfectly centered photo. The Corner Strip dies act like directional frames, drawing your eye in, while the Connectors create seamless flow across the grid.
Even better? This pair plays nicely with the Corner Cut-Out Collection, so you can mix and match for even more layout possibilities! If you’ve been waiting for a fresh way to give your photos center stage with just a hint of flair—this is it. 🌸🌵.

Watch this video on YouTube tonight to see more layout ideas with our Shell Frame, Strips dies, and Cutting Corners die collection. Paije will show lots of beautiful layouts and share tips.
Paije’s “Palm Beach” layout captures the
peaceful charm of a day on the shore—and it’s made even better with the help of the Strips 1x3 and Strips 1x2 dies!
These handy dies (sold separately) are perfect for adding structure and style to your pages—fast. Whether you’re framing
long scenic photos, creating mini panoramas, or just adding pops of color with cardstock or patterned paper, the Strips dies make it quick and easy.
In this layout, Paije mixes photos of shells, waves, and little footsteps in the sand—all tucked into tidy rows of strips that feel
effortless and polished. You’ll love how simple it is to highlight the little things—like sea-foam, shell texture, or a sunlit smile—with these skinny shapes.
The Strips dies are your go-to for layouts that look amazing without taking hours to complete.
Ready to add them to your die collection? These are classics you’ll reach for again and again.
Jodi’s pickleball-themed layout is a dynamic showcase of the Chunky Corner 4x4 & 3x3 dies—part of the Corner Cut-Out Collection!
These bold, angular designs bring sharp structure to your layout and look especially fantastic on masculine pages. She used two of the dies in the set to create a powerful frame around a central 4x4 photo—layering green cardstock with energetic action shots of her family mid-game. The die set includes:
A chunky 4x4 die that spans two grid spaces wide
A coordinating layering die for depth and color
A chunky 3x3 die that fills a single grid square with style
The result? A page that’s full of movement, clean lines, and cool contrast—just right for sports, outdoor adventures, or any
high-energy memory.
Whether you're documenting a big win or a sunny afternoon rally, this die set serves up strong style every time!

Mix, Match & Make It Work: Corner Cut-Out Dies in Perfect Harmony
Jodi’s "Exploring Fayetteville" layout is a stunning showcase of how multiple dies from the Corner Cut-Out Collection can work together to create a seamless, visually compelling design.
She began by placing the Steps dies in all four corners of the page, filling them with vivid autumn leaves to form a colorful, symmetrical frame. Between these corners, she added action shots of hikers using the T-Square dies, which are part of the T-Square Corner Cut-Out 2x4 Set—a versatile trio that includes the T-Square and two 2x4 'L' shaped dies.
At the center, T-Square (L shaped option)—cut from green patterned paper—elegantly wrap around a 4x4 focal photo of a mom and baby out on the trail, grounding the whole layout with warmth and personality.
This page is a perfect example of how to mix and match Corner Cut-Out dies to create layouts full of structure, balance, and visual flow. Each die plays its part in guiding the eye and bringing the story to life.
The Corner Cut-Out Collection isn’t just a set of tools—it’s a creative system for building bold, dynamic scrapbook pages with style and heart.
Paije’s "Raft Richmond" layout is a fantastic example of how the Corner Cut-Out Collection brings both structure and creativity to a page—adding visual interest without overwhelming your photos.
She combined the Two Corner Cut-Out, T-Square Corner Cut-Out, and
Fat-T dies to beautifully frame a mix of exciting river rafting action
and peaceful nature views. At the heart of the layout, two T-Square dies join together to create a striking river mosaic, capturing the flow of the water and naturally drawing the eye to the center.
What makes this layout especially clever is how Paije used the layering dies from
the Two Corner Cut-Out set to crop portions of her 4x6 photos, making them fit the grid perfectly with the larger pattern paper mats while still telling the full story.
The end result is a clean, balanced page that’s full of motion and meaning. It’s a great reminder that the
Corner Cut-Out diesaren’t just decorative—they’re powerful tools for guiding the eye, framing your memories, and sparking fresh page ideas.
Mix and match them—you’ll be surprised how easy it is
to create something amazing!
