Let's Gear Up!
Hey, there!
Given how difficult it is for most of us to make masculine cards, I'm always pleased when a new product makes that task easier, and If there is one thing of which I'm COGnizant, it's how cool the new Gearworks Border and Mini Gears dies are for just that purpose!
This card is deceptively intricate. It looks like it took a long time, but this thing flew together pretty quickly. Use metallic, shimmer paper if you want to replicate the feel of real metal.
(Can you believe the detail on those cogs?! Dave is the Wild Man of Die Design!)

I love what you've done with these. I hadn't seen their potential at all. Brilliant.

Its really a cool card!
I have these 2 dies too and I LOVE them and only use metallic cardstock with them.

I was and am thrilled with the new gear dies. They are perfect for me, I am a fan of steampunk and I was wishing for dies that would cut very small gears. I will be ordering these soon. Also perfect for masculine cards, my husband collects pocket watches and clocks. Thank you for sharing today.

Way cool card. Perfect for guys. But I'm not a guy and if someone gave me this card I would love it!
