"Springtime at Thanksgiving Point" by Jodi Benson - Pattern #405
Hello
It's time to meet Aurora, designed to be simple, yet they make every page look extraordinary!
Aurora has a special place in my heart because it was
inspired by my daughter’s favorite princess. ✨ Just like the namesake, these dies have a graceful, elegant feel—but don’t let that fool you into thinking they’re only for “princess pages.” Aurora is wonderfully versatile!
Whether you’re scrapping travel adventures, gardens in
bloom, family milestones, or yes—even magical moments with your favorite princess—you’ll love how these dies fill in little spots and create borders that add instant beauty without extra fuss.
Our Design Team has created some absolutely stunning layouts with Aurora, and I
can’t wait for you to see them (and then dream up your own).
Here’s to bringing a little sparkle and elegance to your scrapbook pages,
Have a you're-worth-it week!

Paper from the Fresh N Fruity Collection, 8.5x11 White Cardstock, Aurora 1x4 Die, Aurora 1x2 Die, Aurora 1x1 Die, Basic Die Bundle A-E & 1" Grid - Colored, and the back of 12x12 Love Grid Paper from the Happiness Collection used as pattern paper.
When it comes to adding that perfect finishing touch, border dies are a game-changer—and the Aurora Dies take it to the next level. These dies aren’t just for cutting shapes; they’re designed to frame your layouts, highlight your photos, and give your pages a polished, professional look—all while letting your creativity
shine.
Take Jodi Benson’s “Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice” layout. She used the Aurora 1x4 and 1x1 dies alongside the Layering Die Bundle and Basic Die Bundle to create an elegant full page border that guide your eye across the page. The borders dies act like little
visual “anchors,” tying together patterned papers, grids, and embellishments so every section of your layout feels thoughtfully arranged.
With the Aurora dies, you can transform ordinary edges into decorative accents, add rhythm to your design, and even mix and match pieces to
create entirely new patterns. On the 12x12 Fresh Malt grid paper with PhotoPlay™ pattern papers, these border dies don’t just decorate—they elevate your pages, giving them depth, movement, and that extra touch of “wow.”

One of the things that makes the Aurora Dies so fun is how beautifully they work with color. On Jodi Benson’s “Springtime at Thanksgiving Point” layout, the Aurora dies aren’t just
decorative—they’re little canvases for your creativity.
Using the 1x4, 1x2, and 1x1 Aurora dies, Jodi filled each mini section with a variety of colors, creating a playful, eye-catching rhythm across her page. The tiny diamond shapes in the Aurora dies are filled with bright green
paper, giving just the right pop of color to draw your eye and highlight the detail. The Love Grid paper combines green, purple, and blue tones, while the 12x12 Persimmon Grid background is a soft grey—providing the perfect neutral base so all the vibrant colors and patterns can shine.
Even the purple flowers in the photos are echoed in the Aurora dies, where purple (in the Love Grid paper that is used as pattern paper) fills several sections, tying the entire color story together. By thoughtfully layering colors and patterns, you can make each border section stand out while keeping the whole layout cohesive.
The Aurora dies let you highlight details, create flow, and turn ordinary edges into something extraordinary—all with just a few snips and a little creativity!

Versatile Style with the Aurora Dies
"Sandstone Cliffs" (Side A) by Paije Potter - Pattern #328
Dies needed to create this look:
Aurora 1x3
Aurora 1x1
Layering Die Bundle Colored A-L through E-L
Basic Die Bundle A-E & 1" Grid - Colored
While the Aurora Dies have a delicate, feminine look, they’re surprisingly versatile and work beautifully with a wide range of page themes. Take Paije Potter’s “Sandstone Cliffs” layout as an example. This design celebrates travel and hiking, filled with rich southwest colors that evoke the warm tones of sandstone cliffs and
desert landscapes.
Paije used the Aurora 1x3 and 1x1 dies to create bold, masculine-inspired decorative borders that frame her photos without overpowering them. The dies add structure and rhythm, letting the vibrant colors and textures of the layout shine. You can see how the
Aurora dies guide the eye across the page, highlight key moments, and even echo natural shapes found in the scenery.
No matter your theme—travel, nature, family adventures, or everyday memories—the Aurora Dies let you add elegance,
structure, and creative flair to every layout. By mixing sizes, shapes, and patterns, you can craft pages that are both eye-catching and uniquely your own.
